I've been hurt... a lot. I've had to forgive... a lot. I've needed to be forgiven... arguably even more. Fortunately, I have tools like the 7 Steps of Forgiveness that can help.

Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
If you’re tired of replaying old hurts, feeling weighed down by anger, guilt, or bitterness, you’re ready to explore what forgiveness and healing could look like, with or without reconciliation. Forgiveness is a choice to release resentment or anger toward someone who has harmed you. It does not excuse or justify the wrong, and forgiveness does not require reconciliation, particularly in unsafe or harmful circumstances. Self-forgiveness means releasing resentment, guilt, and shame toward yourself, recognizing your humanity, accepting your imperfections, and granting yourself compassion.

Havenwood Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Forgiveness doesn't have to mean minimizing what happened, forgetting, reconnecting with someone, or saying that their actions were okay. Sometimes forgiveness is about releasing the hold an experience continues to have on you and deciding what you want to carry forward.
Tina offers a warm, compassionate space to explore hurt, resentment, grief, and complicated relationship experiences. Together, you can work toward understanding what happened, identifying what you need now, and finding a path forward that respects your boundaries and your values.

Are resentment, regret, or self-blame keeping you tied to the past?
You may find yourself replaying painful experiences, caught in cycles of anger, disappointment, guilt, or self-doubt. Perhaps you're looking for a way to understand what happened, make peace with what you can't change, and feel less burdened by the past.
Forgiveness doesn't mean forgetting, minimizing, excusing, or reconciling with someone who has hurt you. And it doesn't require you to say or do anything for another person. Forgiveness can be a deeply personal process of releasing some of the emotional weight you've been carrying and reconnecting with yourself.
Together, we'll explore your experience with compassion and curiosity, developing ways to work with difficult emotions while strengthening your relationship with yourself. Where appropriate, EMDR can also help process distressing experiences and memories that continue to carry emotional weight.
The goal isn't to erase the past. It's to help you reclaim more of your present—making room for greater self-compassion, freedom, and the life you want to live now.

Holding onto resentment, guilt, or past wounds can feel heavy and exhausting. At Pursue You Psychotherapy, we help individuals navigate the complex emotions tied to forgiveness—whether it’s forgiving others, yourself, or simply finding peace with what cannot be changed. Forgiveness doesn’t mean excusing harm or forgetting—it’s about freeing yourself from the weight of anger and pain so you can move forward.
We provide treatment that targets:
-Resentment & Unresolved Hurt – Struggling to let go of past betrayals, injustices, or disappointments.
-Self-Forgiveness & Guilt – Carrying shame over past mistakes or struggling to move forward with self-compassion.
-Anger & Bitterness – Feeling stuck in frustration, seeking closure, or wanting to release emotional burdens.
-Broken Trust in Relationships – Navigating forgiveness after betrayal, family conflict, or relational wounds.
-Letting Go of Perfectionism – Learning to accept yourself and others despite past imperfections or failures.
-Fear of Being Hurt Again – Wanting to forgive but struggling with trust, boundaries, and emotional safety.
Our therapeutic approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Self-Compassion Practices, Inner Healing & Narrative Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Emotional Processing to help you work through pain, shift unhelpful thought patterns, and cultivate a sense of peace—without minimizing your experiences. Forgiveness is a journey, not a destination. Whether you’re working on releasing anger, rebuilding trust, or learning to be kinder to yourself, we’re here to guide you toward healing in a way that honors your emotions and personal boundaries

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you feel weighed down by hurt, resentment, or unfinished emotions from the past? Many of us grow up believing we’re supposed to “move on,” let things go quickly, or forgive before we’re ready. Anger, grief, or boundaries may have felt unacceptable, leaving those emotions unresolved and carried quietly over time.
These feelings are not a sign of bitterness or failure—they’re signals that something meaningful needs to be acknowledged. Forgiveness is not about excusing harm or forcing closure; it’s about understanding what you’ve been holding and deciding what you want to carry forward. Together, we can explore your experiences at your pace, clarify what forgiveness means for you, and support you in finding relief, clarity, and a lighter sense of self. You’re holding this for a reason. Let’s explore why—and what comes next.
