Dr. Lisa C. Watson
Psychologist, PsyD, MPH
In forgiveness therapy for adults, I begin with a thorough assessment to understand their personal history and current challenges related to forgiveness. Creating a supportive environment, I help clients explore their feelings and beliefs about forgiveness, emphasizing its benefits for personal well-being. Together, we address negative emotions like anger and resentment through techniques such as cognitive restructuring and empathy exercises. Mindfulness and relaxation practices are integrated to promote emotional regulation during the forgiveness process. Homework assignments, such as journaling or forgiveness exercises, support progress between sessions. Regular assessments ensure our approach remains effective and aligned with clients' goals, aiming to empower adults in navigating forgiveness toward healing and personal growth.

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 is often misunderstood as something we do for someone else. It's not-it is for us. And there is much more to it than just saying "I forgive them." Call to talk over what, who, and why you want to forgive.
