Forgiveness
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.

Forgiveness
Madison Zimbal
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-IT
Forgiveness can be one of the most meaningful and also most difficult parts of healing. Many people come to therapy carrying hurt from relationships, family dynamics, betrayal, or past experiences that still feel heavy in the present. I provide a supportive space for children (7+), teens, and women who are struggling with resentment, emotional wounds, or feeling stuck in what has happened to them. In our work together, forgiveness is never rushed or forced. Instead, we gently explore what the pain represents, how it has impacted your thoughts and emotions, and what it might look like to begin loosening the hold it has on your present life. Forgiveness is not about excusing harm or minimizing what happened, it is about creating space for healing, emotional freedom, and peace. For many clients, forgiveness also involves processing grief, setting boundaries, and rebuilding a sense of self after being hurt. I use a compassionate, skills-based approach to help clients regulate emotions, work through painful memories, and move at a pace that feels safe and respectful. For clients who desire it, faith can also be integrated into this process. Christian counseling can offer a framework of grace, healing, and spiritual support, allowing forgiveness to be explored through both emotional and spiritual understanding. My goal is to help clients move toward relief, not by forgetting the past, but by no longer being defined or controlled by it. Healing is possible, and forgiveness can become a pathway toward greater peace, clarity, and emotional freedom.
