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.

Make Marriage Better
Psychologist, Ph.D.
At Make Marriage Better, we recognize that forgiveness is a crucial yet often challenging aspect of healing in relationships. Our approach focuses on helping individuals confront the underlying fears and emotional wounds that hinder their ability to forgive, such as fear of vulnerability, fear of being hurt again, or diminished self-worth. Utilizing the Deconstructing Anxiety™ method, we guide clients to explore their “chief defenses” that have kept them trapped in cycles of resentment and hurt. By encouraging them to do the opposite of these defenses, we facilitate a journey toward empathy, understanding, and ultimately, forgiveness. This transformative process allows individuals to release the burden of past grievances, fostering healthier connections and a renewed sense of peace and compassion within themselves and their relationships.

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.
