Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Forgiveness is often misunderstood as a requirement for healing, but I believe it is a deeply personal choice. Drawing on over 15 years of experience working with survivors of complex trauma and abuse, I understand that for some, choosing not to forgive is a vital act of self-protection and boundary-setting.
In our work, there is no pressure to reach a state of forgiveness to 'earn' your peace. Instead, we focus on helping your 'parts' find relief from the burden of the past. Whether you choose to forgive or you choose to hold your boundary, my goal is to help you move toward a life of clarity and internal stability—free from the judgment of others and the weight of old wounds.

Forgiveness is letting yourself free. Forgiving doens't mean you forget or that what happened was okay. It's releasing you from the weight that is not yours to carry.

North Star Therapy-- Cleo Haber
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
Forgiveness can be hard, especially when you have felt hurt, betrayed or let down. Whether you are looking to forgive others or forgive yourself, we provide support to radically accept what occurred and find ways to move forward in life. Through an exploration of compassion, naming one's needs, and addressing accountability, while recognizing that all humans are imperfect, we can work through forgiveness-an act that can liberate yourself from feelings of bitterness, anger and resentment.

Dr. Patrick McGrath
Psychologist, O.C., C. Psychologist
Carrying resentment, past hurts, or unresolved grievances can act like an invisible anchor, keeping you tied to pain long after the event has passed. Forgiveness is rarely a simple or straightforward path, and it doesn't mean forgetting, excusing, or minimizing what happened—rather, it is a deeply personal journey toward freeing yourself from the weight of the past. Using a compassionate, evidence-based approach, we will work collaboratively to untangle the complex emotions surrounding the hurt, gently explore what forgiveness could look like for you on your own terms, and help you reclaim your peace and emotional freedom.

Tehmina Ayana Meherali
Counsellor/Therapist, M.Ed, CCC, CMHP
I support individuals who are carrying unresolved hurt, betrayal, conflict, or self-blame. Forgiveness can sometimes feel impossible but it can also be deeply freeing. In our work together, forgiveness is not about excusing harm or rushing the healing process. It’s about helping you release what no longer serves you and reclaim your peace.
I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can safely explore difficult emotions, set healthy boundaries, and move forward with greater clarity and self-trust. Whether you are seeking closure, reconciliation, or self-forgiveness, we will move at a pace that feels right for you.
