Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Forgiveness is one of the most misused words in the language. It gets deployed as a demand — as though the person who was hurt owes the one who hurt them a resolution. Real forgiveness, when it comes, is not a decision. It is something that happens when a person has been allowed to fully inhabit their anger, their grief, the reality of what was taken. You cannot skip to the end. The therapeutic work is in everything that comes before — the parts no one wants to stay with.

Iris Bowen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MBA
Struggling with forgiveness, whether it’s towards yourself or someone else, can become all consuming. So much of your day may be colored with feelings of guilt, anger, or betrayal—even during moments that are supposed to be joyful. This experience may be compounded by feeling under-resourced with places or people you feel safe to openly and authentically process what is coming up for you. I aim to provide a sacred, brave space where you can feel empowered to commune with all your feelings in their raw form. A space where you feel safe to process your anger, or even to learn how to support yourself through experiences of shame and regret. Most importantly when working on forgiveness, my ambition is to support a process culminating in your ability to move forward with intention, choice, and agency.

Jason Powell
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CST
Forgiveness is not about forgetting - it’s about finding freedom from the weight of resentment and hurt. In therapy, we explore what forgiveness truly means for you: how to grieve what was lost, hold boundaries with integrity, and allow compassion to emerge without abandoning yourself. Whether you’re healing after infidelity, betrayal, or relational pain, this work helps restore clarity and steadiness - creating room for trust, grace, and emotional repair to take root again.
