Forgiveness
Headway Mental Health
Registered Psychotherapist, Joshua Dvorkin, MPsy, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying),
As a compassionate therapist, I specialize in helping individuals navigate the complex and transformative journey of forgiveness. Drawing from my own personal experiences and professional training, I understand the profound impact that holding onto resentment, anger, and hurt can have on one's emotional well-being and relationships. I believe that forgiveness is a powerful tool for healing and growth, allowing individuals to break free from the chains of pain and find inner peace. In our sessions, I create a safe and non-judgmental space where we can explore the deep-rooted emotions and beliefs that may be preventing you from embracing forgiveness. Together, we will work towards understanding the underlying reasons behind your pain and examine how forgiveness can bring about profound healing and liberation. Utilizing various evidence-based therapeutic approaches, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness techniques, I will guide you in developing strategies to let go of resentment and cultivate compassion for yourself and others. Through this transformative process, you will gain a deeper understanding of forgiveness as a personal choice and empower yourself to heal, rebuild trust, and foster healthier relationships. My mission is to support you on your journey towards forgiveness, helping you find the strength, resilience, and inner peace necessary to create a more fulfilling and authentic life.

Forgiveness
Joshua Lewis
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CT
Forgiveness is a process where someone who has been wronged chooses to let go of their resentment, and treat the wrongdoer with compassion. Forgiveness does not mean forgetting or condoning the wrongdoing, granting legal mercy, or reconciling a relationship. You can forgive a person while in no way believing that their actions were acceptable or justified.
Clients who continue to hang on to painful emotions related to a mistreatment—even though they have every right to hold those emotions—can receive great benefit from forgiveness therapy. A number of positive outcomes, such as reductions in depression, resentment, and rumination, have been associated with forgiveness.

Courtney Mann
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MACP
Forgiveness may seem like an impossible place to get to when someone has caused us harm. When ready, we need to find a way to process the anger, resentment, and pain we feel so that we can move on from our pain. Therapy is an effective tool for helping you to move past the pain and anger and toward peace.

Bree Bonanno
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Forgiveness shouldn't be forced. Only you can know if and when you're ready to forgive. Remember that the act of forgiveness is not about the other person but, instead, for yourself. To forgive others doesn't equate to reconciliation, nor does it mean to condone. It's meant to release your resentment and permit you to reclaim your life.

Clare Karasik
Registered Social Worker, MSW, BSW, RSW
Whether you are looking to forgive others or forgive yourself, I provide support to radically accept what occurred and find ways to move forward in life. We may explore ideas of compassion, needs, and accountability while recognizing that all humans are imperfect. In terms of self-forgiveness, I recognize that doing a "bad" thing does not make us a "bad" person. I support individuals to determine what is theirs to own and take accountability for as well as when they may be taking accountability for things that is not their responsibility.
