I help high achievers and perfectionists navigate the challenging process of forgiveness by addressing the underlying perfectionistic tendencies that can complicate this journey. Together, we explore how holding onto grudges or expecting perfection from others can contribute to feelings of anger and resentment. I provide strategies to process these emotions and develop a more compassionate perspective towards both oneself and others. By fostering a balanced view of forgiveness, I help clients release the burden of past grievances and move forward with greater emotional freedom. My goal is to support them in achieving healing and improved relationships while maintaining their sense of integrity and self-worth.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
Drawing upon my extensive experience in working with clients, I've observed that forgiveness is a profound and transformative journey for individuals seeking emotional healing. In my therapeutic approach, I employ EMDR therapy as a powerful tool to guide you on this path to forgiveness. Recognizing that the journey towards forgiveness begins with processing the events that have contributed to your emotional wounds, we delve deep into the core beliefs about yourself that have sprouted from these experiences.
Throughout my work with clients, I emphasize several fundamental principles about forgiveness. Firstly, it's essential to understand that forgiveness doesn't imply agreement with or condoning of the actions that have caused you harm. It also doesn't necessitate allowing the same hurt to be inflicted upon you again. It is possible to forgive and not forget. It is also possible to forgive without ever reconciling with the person who harmed you, as forgiveness is created and achieved for your own personal peace and well-being.
Forgiveness is not a one-time event; it is a process that unfolds through stages. In our therapeutic journey together, we explore the "why" behind your desire to forgive, which serves as a powerful catalyst for determining the "how." This process allows us to navigate the complexities of forgiveness with clarity and purpose, ultimately paving the way for emotional liberation and healing.

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.

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Forgiveness is for you! It doesn't condone other's behaviors and you don't forget. But forgiveness, in the right time, can be a healing experience in letting go and being free of resentment and anger.
