Forgiveness
Ashley Miller Nolan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Remember that the first inherent step of forgiveness is acknowledging that there is hurt and pain. We do not always realize that this may be the biggest hurdle to forgiveness. Sure our minds may tell us stories about that pain, but that is a way to avoid feeling it. Once we feel secure and strong enough to feel our pain we will let it go. Forgiveness is the catalyst for pain releasing, leaving wisdom in its place. When we forgive, we do not go back; we step forward into that wisdom and strength.

Christensen and Sons, Inc.
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW: LCSW, LSW, PEL
Honest forgiveness it as the process that brings us to a place of peace in our hearts and acceptance that the past cannot be changed. The acceptance, that is achieved, will liberate us to become fully active again in our lives and a become a new influence. When we choose not to forgive we replay the circumstance in our mind over and over. We become a prisoner to our own history and stuck in the past and our future is absent of being in a place of being connected in our relationship. When we withhold forgiveness we can hurt ourselves.

Forgiveness
Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
It is so easy to hold on to anger, resentment, self-criticism, rage, guilt, shame, and negative views of ourselves and others, yet all the research suggests that letting go and engaging in forgiveness is the healthiest solution for the one who forgives. It is hard to learn to forgive the self and others, but I believe we are all capable of working through that which keeps us stuck in the painful feelings and moving to a place of forgiveness.

Forgiveness
Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In helping patients struggling with forgiveness, I provide a supportive and nonjudgmental space for them to explore their feelings and experiences. Through therapy, we work together to understand the root causes of their struggles with forgiveness, such as past traumas or deeply held beliefs. I offer techniques and strategies to help them process their emotions, including mindfulness, journaling, and guided imagery. We also explore the concept of empathy, helping patients understand the perspective of the person who wronged them. Together, we identify and challenge any barriers to forgiveness, such as resentment or fear of vulnerability. My goal is to empower patients to find their own path to forgiveness, whether it involves reconciliation or simply letting go of negative emotions and moving forward with their lives.
