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.

Jason Hutchings
Psychologist, PsyD
We often carry a lot of resentment that is hard to know what to do with. We can work to uncover the ways in which we refuse to let go of certain feelings and resentments that, in the end, really just hurt us.

Jeannette Craigfeld
Psychologist, Psy.D., Licensed Psychologist
I have worked with many clients who have been harmed or betrayed by a loved one, some very recently and others a very long time ago. I don't believe that forgiveness is always mandatory for healing, but I have seen it feel very freeing for many people in order to move forward from the trauma, betrayal, or loss they have experienced. It's a process that cannot be rushed, and everyone's timeline is different. My aim is to help these clients take all of the time and space they need to process the complicated feelings they may feel towards the person who has harmed them.

Dr. Azilde E Sanchez
Psychologist, PhD., LPC., LCADC., ACS
Letting go can be difficult. However, holding on to resentment can have a negative impact on our lives, making difficult to establish healthy relationships with others and ourselves. In therapy we can work together to process the negative events you can't let go and explore healthier ways of coping with painful situations by embracing the power of forgiveness. It is not easy, but we can work together to instill hope and compassion.
