Forgiveness
Whiteboard Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
The ability to forgive is a central trait is helping people move past the negative emotions surrounding many family and relationship issues. While forgiveness is not required in all situations, for some, the issue of extending grace is paramount in helping escape the bondage of emotional upheaval and obsessive thinking.

Meaningfully Connected Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP or RP (Qualifying)
Do you feel like there is someone in your life you need to forgive, but feel like you can't? This may be a signal that there is more work to do before you can forgive. Is it possible that there is more to feel and accept before you can forgive? If you have been wronged, or have regrets, exploring this with a trusted person can help you move through what you are experiencing. Oftentimes, how we make sense of what has happened to us is at the root of our stuck-ness. My passion is helping people from various walks of life who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed and irritable. I am interested in getting to know your experience and unique pain point.
We prioritize rapport-building and using a compassionate approach so that you feel safe as you explore the experiences and feelings that are coming up for you today. You are not your difficulties and so it is just as important for us to explore your goals, strengths and story as we tackle the challenges that you are facing. If you are looking for a compassionate therapist who cares not only about your difficulties, but also about how they developed and impact you, who is culturally sensitive and aware, and who will support your self-discovery, we would be honoured to be a part of your journey. Contact us today to schedule a complimentary consultation by phone where we can answer your questions. You deserve a meaningful and peaceful life.

Forgiveness
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.

Forgiveness
Lori Schledewitz
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RP
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.

Forgiveness
Sara Tawadros
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Div in Clinical Counselling
Forgiveness is the process of letting go of resentment or anger towards someone who has caused harm or hurt. It is a decision to release negative feelings and to move on from the pain caused by the actions of another person. Forgiveness is not about forgetting what happened or denying the harm that was caused, but rather it is about accepting that the event happened and choosing to let go of feelings of anger and resentment. Forgiveness can be difficult, but it can also be a powerful tool for healing and personal growth. It can help to improve relationships, reduce stress and anxiety, and improve overall well-being. While it may not always be easy, forgiveness can be an important step towards finding peace and moving forward in life.

Vilma Madramootoo
Registered Psychotherapist, Holistic Health Practitioner, Certified Health, Wellness and Life Coach
I help you break down the barriers of Forgiveness by offering focused-based techniques. Forgiveness means different things to different people. Sometimes it's a decision of "letting go" of toxic feelings that keep you stuck or trapped with an unpleasant experience or person. Forgiveness doesn't mean forgetting or excusing the harm done to you or making up with the person who caused the harm. Forgiveness helps you to go on with your life in a healthier way. Forgiving yourself is the first step of Self-love, Self-care, and Self-acceptance. You embrace your Truthfully.
