Lauren Palumbo
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
You deserve to move through resentment and hurt so you can truly feel relief, beyond just telling yourself to “let it go.” Forgiveness isn’t about excusing the past, it’s about freeing yourself from it. Using an experiential, emotion-focused approach, we'll process what’s unresolved in a safe and supportive way so you can naturally reach a place of clarity, peace, and emotional freedom.

Dr. L A McCrae
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCADC, FOT, CCTP, CCTSA
Within the Black prophetic tradition, Forgiveness is a tool for the internal liberation of the survivor, not an obligation to the harmer. We explore how to release the "head trash" of past trauma so it no longer dictates your future autonomy. In this practice, we view the choice to forgive as a radical act of self-reclamation.

Jack Szary
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D
I work with adults who struggle with letting go of resentment, anger, or past hurts, including conflicts in relationships, family, or personal experiences. Many clients find that holding on to these feelings impacts their emotional well-being, relationships, and sense of peace. My approach helps clients explore the underlying emotions, gain perspective, and develop strategies for self-compassion and healthy boundaries, supporting the process of forgiveness in a way that feels authentic, empowering, and emotionally freeing.

Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Forgiveness is often misunderstood as something owed to someone else, when really it’s a process that happens within the person carrying the hurt. I work with clients to process anger and grief at their own pace, without pressure to arrive at forgiveness before they’re genuinely ready, or at all.

Alexis Smith
Pre-Licensed Professional, MHC-LP
I help clients explore forgiveness in a way that feels authentic, personal, and aligned with their values. This may include self-forgiveness or forgiveness of others, always at a pace that feels safe and without pressure or expectation to forgive before you are ready. Together, we work to understand the emotional weight carried from past experiences, create space for processing, and gently explore what release and acceptance might look like for you. My approach is supportive and nonjudgmental, focused on helping you find clarity, emotional relief, and a deeper sense of inner peace throughout your healing journey. If you’re curious about working through forgiveness in a meaningful way, I invite you to reach out or explore my profile to learn more
