Anger is often the result of deep injustices. While the anger you feel may be justified, holding onto it is not healthy. It can eat away at a person like a cancer. By learning how to establish healthy boundaries in life and to forgive those who hurt you, you can live a happy life free of anger.

Forgiveness
Dr. Susan E. Schumacher
Licensed Professional Counselor, DA, LPC, LCPC, CCTP, EMDR Clinician
Gentle loving kindness for yourself is a foundation for beginning to explore forgiveness, which, sometimes, involves giving up the wish that the past could be different. At your pace, we will explore issues surrounding the challenges that lead to difficult circumstances, betrayals or traumas. We will be cautious to avoid false forgiveness or a rush to forgive before you are ready, and begin to understand what happened to you and how you would like to process that experience.

Forgiveness
Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Forgiveness in relationships is deeply personal, and there is no one-size-fits-all definition of what it should look like. In Gottman Method couples therapy, partners are supported in exploring the meaning of forgiveness within the context of their own experiences, values, boundaries, and relationship goals. Therapy provides space to process hurt, rebuild emotional safety, and strengthen trust without pressure to move faster than feels authentic or "sweep things under the rug." Whether couples are working through betrayal, repeated conflict, or emotional wounds, the focus is on fostering understanding, taking responsibility, making amends, healing, and intentional reconnection in a way that is meaningful and lasting.

Forgiveness
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who are carrying pain, anger, guilt, or unfinished emotional business from relationships that have been complicated or hurtful, including their relationship with themselves. Forgiveness is often misunderstood as excusing harm, minimizing what happened, or reconciling with someone who hurt you. In reality, many people come to therapy because they want relief from the internal weight of what happened and from the way they speak to themselves about it, not because they want to repair the relationship or “move on” before they are ready. You may feel torn between what you think you are supposed to feel and what you actually feel, or caught between loyalty, resentment, grief, and self‑protection. You might also feel stuck in self‑blame, replaying past choices and wishing you had done things differently.
People often seek this kind of work after emotional abuse, betrayal, estrangement, family conflict, or long histories of being the one who absorbs more than their share. These experiences can leave you questioning your reactions, doubting your worth, or feeling responsible for keeping the peace even when it costs you. Over time, the pressure to forgive, from others or from yourself, can create even more confusion, shame, and exhaustion.
In our work together, forgiveness is not a requirement or a destination. I am open to whatever feels most honest and supportive for you, whether that eventually includes forgiveness or not. The focus is on self‑forgiveness and inner relief. We explore what happened with clarity and compassion, how it has shaped your sense of self, and what you have been carrying alone. We make space for the parts of you that still feel hurt, protective, angry, or loyal, and the parts that long for softness and rest. The intention is to help you find a steadier, kinder way of relating to your own story, one that feels honest, grounded, and not dictated by pressure from others. If forgiveness, toward yourself or someone else, becomes part of that process, it can emerge naturally from understanding and self‑respect, not obligation.

Forgiveness
Joyful Restoration Coaching, Counseling & Integrative Energy Medicine
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW, CPTS, BCPCC
We all know and have heard that we should forgive one another right? Sounds really good but not many of us actually have the know-how to do so. Forgiveness is one of those things that is easier said then done. Sometimes we say we have forgiven someone, or think we have but then we hear the persons name, or we are reminded of what they did and instantly, we are full of anger! See what we really did was try to forget or put it out of our minds but that’s not forgiveness. I will teach you what forgiveness actually means, the “how-to” of forgiveness and how to transmute the energy of unforgiveness so you can be free once and for all of the emotional ties of anger and resentment and allow your mind and body to heal.
