Forgiveness
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.

Forgiveness
Transforming Emotions
Psychologist
Do you find yourself unable to forgive someone you care about? Is the pain of the injury too great? Has trust been shattered? Are you waiting to see justice prevail? When forgiveness is elusive it’s often because we’re in pain or angry. At Transforming Emotions, we will help you better understand what stands between you and forgiveness including the boundaries that need to be re-established, the healing that needs to occur, the blocks from the past that need to be removed, and even whether forgiveness is a necessary step in moving forward.

Forgiveness
Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are wrestling with forgiveness, you may feel torn between wanting peace and still carrying hurt. You might replay what happened, struggle with anger, or feel pressured by others to “just move on.” Forgiveness can feel confusing, especially if the wound was deep or trust was broken.
At Selah Counselling, we approach forgiveness with honesty and care. We do not rush the process or minimize the pain. Forgiveness is not pretending something did not happen, and it is not the same as reconciliation or removing healthy boundaries. Together, we explore the impact of the hurt, strengthen emotional regulation, and help you process grief and anger safely. Over time, forgiveness can release what no longer serves you, freeing you from carrying what was never yours to hold forever. The goal is clarity, strength, and peace that grows from truth rather than pressure.

Forgiveness
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.

Forgiveness
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.
