Molly Rosenstein
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Forgiveness is a deeply personal process that can be challenging—but also profoundly freeing. Whether you're working toward forgiving someone else or yourself, I offer a compassionate space to explore the pain, anger, and complexity that often come with it. Together, we’ll move at your pace, using evidence-based tools and genuine human connection to support healing, set healthy boundaries, and foster emotional release without minimizing your experience.

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.

Forgiveness often involves grief and I use Elisabeth Kübler-Ross' model of Grief or Healing (i.e., Denial - Anger - Bargaining - Depression - Acceptance) to explore what my preventing acceptance (i.e., fortgiveness).

Washington's identity as the center of American political life creates a distinct mental health environment where therapists frequently address political burnout, moral injury, and the psychological toll of careers in government, advocacy, nonprofit work, and public policy. The city has a highly educated and driven professional demographic, and therapists specializing in perfectionism, ambition-related anxiety, and navigating high-stakes careers are consistently in demand. DC's large Black professional community and its diverse immigrant population from Africa, Central America, South Asia, and East Asia make culturally affirming and multilingual care especially important. MedStar Georgetown University Hospital and GW Hospital provide institutional mental health anchors alongside the city's dense and sophisticated independent therapy community.
