Michelle Peacock
Psychologist, PhD
Forgiveness is often confused with trust. Forgiveness involves giving up expectations, acceptance of the situation, and compassion for self and others.

Dr. Mitchell Roth
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, JD, PsyD, LMHC
Forgiveness is necessary, but empty in the absence of prior condemnation. We need to forgive, but often need assistance in first fully feeling the hurts that require forgiveness. Holding onto resentment is like drinking the poison and expecting the other person to die.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Forgiveness is often talked about like it’s something you should do—quickly, quietly, and without complexity. But for many people, it’s not that simple. When you’ve been hurt, forgiveness can bring up anger, confusion, pressure, or even resistance—especially if it’s been framed as something you owe to others or something required to “move on.” Cultural, religious, and family messages can add another layer, shaping how forgiveness is defined and whether it feels like a choice at all.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t treat forgiveness as an expectation or a finish line. We help you slow down and figure out what forgiveness actually means to you—if it’s something you even want, and what it might look like on your terms. This often starts with fully processing what happened, acknowledging the impact, and rebuilding a sense of safety and clarity within yourself. From there, we support you in defining your own boundaries, values, and next steps—whether that includes forgiveness, distance, repair, or something else entirely. This work is about reclaiming your agency, not forcing a resolution that doesn’t feel real.
