Forgiveness

The Empowering Space PLLC

Finding Healing Through Forgiveness Forgiveness can be one of the hardest yet most freeing steps in healing—whether you’re working to forgive someone else, seeking self-forgiveness, or struggling with unresolved pain. At The Empowering Space, we help you navigate the complex emotions surrounding forgiveness with compassion, understanding, and evidence-based support. Using mindfulness, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and self-compassion techniques, we work together to process hurt, release resentment, and set healthy emotional boundaries. Forgiveness doesn’t mean forgetting or excusing harm—it’s about reclaiming your peace and emotional well-being. You deserve to heal. Let’s take that step together.

Columbus, Ohio therapist: Full Circle Mental Health LLC, registered social worker
Forgiveness

Full Circle Mental Health LLC

Registered Social Worker, MSW, LISW
Forgiveness is one of the most complex emotional journeys a human can undertake, and it is frequently misunderstood as condoning harm, forgetting past wounds, or forcing an unwanted reconciliation. Whether you are struggling to forgive someone who deeply hurt you, wrestling with religious or cultural pressures to "forgive and forget," or carrying the heavy weight of self-blame, I provide a safe, telehealth space across Ohio to help you untangle this process on your own terms. At Full Circle Mental Health LLC, I believe that true forgiveness is an internal act of self-liberation, not a gift given to the person who harmed you. Grounded in a trauma-informed, strengths-based framework, I help individuals, couples, and blended families navigate this nuanced landscape without judgment. You set the pace, and you are the expert on your own life. Together, we will look at your whole picture, honor your innate resilience, and build a personalized virtual roadmap. Our work will focus on deepening your self-compassion, untangling complex grief, and releasing the grip of past wounds so you can reclaim your personal power and step into an authentic, peaceful future.

Cincinnati, Ohio therapist: Pamela Angel, counselor/therapist
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.

Columbus is home to Ohio State University — one of the largest universities in the country — creating sustained demand for therapists specializing in academic pressure, young adult identity, and sports psychology. The city's position as Ohio's state capital and a growing tech and healthcare hub has accelerated demographic change, with therapists increasingly addressing burnout and adjustment among a fast-growing professional population. OhioHealth, Nationwide Children's Hospital, and the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center provide major institutional mental health anchors for the region. Columbus also has one of the largest Somali communities in the United States, making culturally competent and multilingual therapists who specialize in refugee trauma and identity an important part of the local therapy landscape.
