Counsellor/Therapist, CCC (In process)
Each person’s experience of forgiveness is shaped by a unique interplay of biological, psychological, relational, and environmental factors that has shaped their lives. Through conversation, we tailor our work to your authentic needs together. My approach is integrative and draws from several evidence-based therapeutic orientations.

Registered Psychotherapist, BFA, B.Ed, MA, CPC, CCPCPR, CCAC, ICADC, CSAT, CCTP, CCTACP
Are you so angry or hurt by someone else's actions that you don't feel able to forgive your offender? Do you feel like forgiving would be letting your offender off the hook? Do you think that forgiveness means forgetting? Or that forgiving requires you to trust them again? What if your offender shows no remorse - does this mean you don't need to forgive?
If you're having difficulty forgiving or even understanding how to go about that, I can help you understand what forgiveness is and what forgiveness isn't. If you have a backpack of "rocks" labelled hurt, resentment and anger, I can help you "drop the rocks"?

Florence MacGregor
Registered Psychotherapist, MFA, MPS, Embodiment Coach
Forgiveness is challenging when you are innocent and the perpetrator is not willing to be accountable for their actions. It is not something that happens over night and it is not always to even accept for yourselfm even if you are innocent. Patience, courage and allowing all of your emotions to be accepted with respect, serves to heal personal boundaries and respect. You are worthy of care, love and support.

Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
There is a lot of talk about forgiveness these days. A popular notion is that we must forgive if we want to move forward but I find this a little confusing? I think to forgive oneself is important. Mega important. To understand why we do the things we do - and why someone else did to us what they did to us - is also important. But... Is it really up to us to judge and forgive someone else for their actions? Do we have that responsibility? We can hear their apology if one is forthcoming. But our responsibility is to ourselves (and to our young children). I believe we are free to choose how we wish to move forward and create our life from this moment. We are each of us, as adults, responsible for our own actions. People who have hurt us in some way are responsible for themselves. If forgiving is important to us, we can explore that. However Dr Rosenberg said that in order to be happy we must get to know ourselves, understand our needs and arrange our lives so that those needs are met. Our loved ones will naturally benefit from our happiness. (Of course we should never hurt anyone physically either, other than in self defence.)
