Forgiveness therapists in Jacksonville, Florida FL
Chris Bartkowiak
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed. LMHC
How I view forgiveness is understanding what happened on a deep level and letting go of the pain and emotions within . For me it’s not about turning the other cheek but if you let go of the pain and anger within you then you can free yourself. This does not mean that you ever have to have contact with who hurt you . They do not have the right to dictate how you feel or the choices you make .

Mayme Siders
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
While we think of forgiveness as being about something we do for others, my experience is that it is something we most often need to do for ourselves. However, I do not think it a requirement in the process of personal growth. I would never tell someone that they should or shouldn't forgive anyone. Rather, I would work to help them to look more deeply at how they feel about the situation, help them to decide how they want to proceed, and then support them in that choice.

Molly Terry
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LMHC
Forgiveness therapy is powerful. It can be freeing and very cathartic to process through past wrongs. It leads to becoming the best version of yourself for yourself.

Debra Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Forgiveness is not a destination, but a place to visit and spend time. When people are betrayed either by a friend, family member, romantic partner, or co-worker, the hurt is profound. Sometimes, as with someone who has passed, there is no opportunity to gain closure. Forgiveness work is about exploring your feelings, but also learning skills you can use to work through the pain and get to a place of acceptance.
