Ps. I Love You Psychotherapy Inc.
Registered Psychotherapist, HBEd, MA (Hons.), Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Forgiving others is only going to give you peace in your heart and who does not want that? I will remind you that when someone hurts you, it is not a testament of your character. I will show you how to make wise decisions rather than emotional ones.

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.

Victoria Lorient-Faibish
Registered Psychotherapist, MEd, RP, CCC, RPE
Forgiveness of self and others is really everything. This is not to say one is condoning the bad behaviour. Forgiveness and the path toward it can be the most transformative healing journey that can literally save a person's life.

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.

Vilma Madramootoo , Registered Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Holistic Health Practitioner, Health & Wellness 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.

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.

Fran Grove-White
Registered Psychotherapist, R.P. Dip Ish, CGPA, CHTA
The power of forgiveness is often very surprising and many have difficulty with this. It is often conflated with forgetting and being used as a doormat or letting someone off scot free. The hardest one to forgive is often oneself.

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.

Bridges Clinical Hypnotherapy Services
Hypnotherapist
Sometimes bad things happen to nice people. We can find ourselves stuck as a result of these situations and it can be difficult to move forward or even see anything else. Our perspective can become distorted by the perceived "boulder in the middle of the road". Holding these negative emotions on a regular basis inside our bodies can even make us physical ill. If you are finding yourself dealing with this challenge, consider that hypnosis is an excellent tool you can use to reach the crux of the problem and allow you to move forward.
