Forgiveness
Dr. Sven Schild
Psychologist, PhD, SEP, TCC
My approach to working with forgiveness involves integrating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Somatic Experiencing (SE). Through ACT, clients learn to accept their emotions and commit to value-driven actions, fostering a deeper understanding and willingness to forgive. EMDR helps process and resolve traumatic memories that may hinder forgiveness, allowing clients to release past hurts and move forward. SE addresses the physiological aspects of holding onto grudges, helping clients release stored tension and restore a sense of inner peace. This holistic approach facilitates genuine forgiveness, promoting emotional healing and overall well-being.

Forgiveness
Allie Kaelin
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, APCC
Forgiveness is often misunderstood as something we do for others, but in reality, it’s something we do for ourselves. Holding onto anger and resentment can keep us stuck in the past, preventing emotional and spiritual growth. I work with clients to help them see that forgiveness is a powerful tool for releasing negative emotions and moving forward with greater peace and emotional freedom.

Forgiveness
Dr. David Shapiro
Psychologist, California Licensed Psychologist (License# PSY17495)
Forgiveness is quite frequently a component of the clinical work that I do. One guiding idea I share with my clients is that often it is more beneficial to forgive for the person forgiving than for the person being forgiven. An important distinction though is not to push people to forgive prematurely in such a way that it invalidates their feelings and concerns. Rather, I view forgiveness as something that can grow out of working through one's hurts. One important concept that my clients tend to find useful is compassion, not just for the other party, but for oneself as well.

Forgiveness
Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
A friend of mine once said that not forgiving is like holding hot coals in your hands, threatening to throw them at someone, when all you get is burned hands -- better to drop the coals, through forgiveness, than keep getting burned. Forgiveness is for you, not the other person. It relieves you of the burden of carrying anger and resentment toward another, or even yourself. Forgiving yourself or another person can be very healing. Their response to you forgiving them can be a bonus, but it isn't necessary, as proven by the fact that we can forgive people that are no longer alive.
