Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS, M.Div
Forgiveness is primarily for our benefit, as opposed to being for the sake of someone that has harmed us - unforgiveness keeps us locked in an internal prison of anger and resentment, which can leak out to the ones we love. We seldom forgive once-and-for-all; rather, it can be helpful to think of forgiveness as a practice to engage in whenever we are triggered by a hurtful memory, freeing us from the tyranny of the past.

Nathan Kretzschmar
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Forgiveness is deeply personal, and it should never be forced, rushed, or used to minimize harm. In therapy, we can explore what forgiveness means for you, whether that involves releasing self-blame, making sense of pain, grieving what happened, or finding peace without necessarily reconciling. The focus is on your healing, your boundaries, and your emotional freedom.

Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Forgiveness is often misunderstood as a requirement for healing, but I believe it is a deeply personal choice. Drawing on over 15 years of experience working with survivors of complex trauma and abuse, I understand that for some, choosing not to forgive is a vital act of self-protection and boundary-setting.
In our work, there is no pressure to reach a state of forgiveness to 'earn' your peace. Instead, we focus on helping your 'parts' find relief from the burden of the past. Whether you choose to forgive or you choose to hold your boundary, my goal is to help you move toward a life of clarity and internal stability—free from the judgment of others and the weight of old wounds.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
Forgiveness is a loaded word. I'm not interested in telling you who to forgive, or how. But if you find yourself focused on the events surrounding a specific person, there might be some survival energy, emotional or physical, tied into that situation.
Using Somatic Experiencing to express and move that survival response so you feel safe again can help you 'un-fixate' from that person...and some may call that forgiveness. I prefer the term 'moving on', but we all have different language for this kind of thing.

[EN] Forgiveness can carry a lot of pressure, especially when you have been hurt and feel you are supposed to let go before you are ready. I do not assume that forgiveness is necessary or that it should be the goal of our work. We can instead explore the anger, grief, loyalty, hurt, or unfinished relational experience that makes forgiveness complicated, and allow your own position to become clearer over time.
[FR] Le pardon peut venir avec beaucoup de pression, particulièrement lorsque tu as été blessé et que tu as l’impression que tu devrais passer à autre chose avant d’être prêt. Je ne pars pas du principe que le pardon est nécessaire ni qu’il devrait être l’objectif de notre travail. Nous pouvons plutôt explorer la colère, le deuil, la loyauté, la blessure ou ce qui reste inachevé dans la relation, afin que ta propre position puisse devenir plus claire avec le temps.
