Forgiveness
Pamela Angel
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I believe it is the most transformative, underutilized pathway to profound emotional healing. I help clients move past the paralysis of bitterness, resentment, and self-blame, not by forgetting the past, but by liberating themselves from its hold.
My work focuses on:
Reclaiming Personal Power: Shifting from a state of victimization to one of empowerment, where the client decides to break free from the emotional, mental, and physical weight of unresolved trauma.

Forgiveness
Jason Hutchings
Psychologist, PsyD
We often carry a lot of resentment that is hard to know what to do with. We can work to uncover the ways in which we refuse to let go of certain feelings and resentments that, in the end, really just hurt us.

Forgiveness
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who are carrying pain, anger, guilt, or unfinished emotional business from relationships that have been complicated or hurtful, including their relationship with themselves. Forgiveness is often misunderstood as excusing harm, minimizing what happened, or reconciling with someone who hurt you. In reality, many people come to therapy because they want relief from the internal weight of what happened and from the way they speak to themselves about it, not because they want to repair the relationship or “move on” before they are ready. You may feel torn between what you think you are supposed to feel and what you actually feel, or caught between loyalty, resentment, grief, and self‑protection. You might also feel stuck in self‑blame, replaying past choices and wishing you had done things differently.
People often seek this kind of work after emotional abuse, betrayal, estrangement, family conflict, or long histories of being the one who absorbs more than their share. These experiences can leave you questioning your reactions, doubting your worth, or feeling responsible for keeping the peace even when it costs you. Over time, the pressure to forgive, from others or from yourself, can create even more confusion, shame, and exhaustion.
In our work together, forgiveness is not a requirement or a destination. I am open to whatever feels most honest and supportive for you, whether that eventually includes forgiveness or not. The focus is on self‑forgiveness and inner relief. We explore what happened with clarity and compassion, how it has shaped your sense of self, and what you have been carrying alone. We make space for the parts of you that still feel hurt, protective, angry, or loyal, and the parts that long for softness and rest. The intention is to help you find a steadier, kinder way of relating to your own story, one that feels honest, grounded, and not dictated by pressure from others. If forgiveness, toward yourself or someone else, becomes part of that process, it can emerge naturally from understanding and self‑respect, not obligation.

Forgiveness
Couples Counseling Center
Counselor/Therapist, Ph.D., LPC
When trust has been broken, many wonder if their relationship can ever feel normal again. Whether you're navigating betrayal, past hurts, or years of disconnection, repair is possible, but it takes more than just saying “sorry.” I help couples rebuild the trust, so you can forgive, change the patterns that led to relationship injury, and feel relaxed with one another.

Forgiveness
New Beginnings Christian Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Forgiveness can be one of the most freeing—but also most challenging—steps in emotional and spiritual healing. Whether you are struggling to forgive yourself or someone else, unresolved hurt can keep you trapped in anger, resentment, or shame. In therapy, we help clients gently explore the pain, understand the impact of holding onto it, and work toward releasing it in a way that honors both their feelings and God’s truth. Through faith-informed guidance and practical therapeutic tools, forgiveness counseling supports healing, emotional freedom, and restoration—helping you experience peace, wholeness, and healthier relationships.
15 Years Experience
Online in Cincinnati, OH Ohio
Cincinnati sits at the intersection of the Midwest and Appalachia, and therapists here frequently address addiction, economic stress, and intergenerational trauma rooted in the region's opioid crisis. The city has a strong Catholic and faith community, and many therapists offer spiritually sensitive approaches alongside evidence-based care. University of Cincinnati Medical Center and Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, complemented by a growing network of private practitioners across Hyde Park, Mount Lookout, and Oakley. Cincinnati's position as a bi-state metro also means therapists often serve clients from across the Kentucky border.
