Forgiveness is widely accepted as a powerful healing agent, but it isn't a panacea. How do therapists know when forgiveness is appropriate in individual cases and how far to go in the forgiving process with clients who've suffered grave harm from another? In this workshop, we'll cover a "four-station" framework for taking clients through the process of forgiveness—insight and boundary setting, understanding of the other, providing the opportunity for compensation, and the overt act of forgiveness. We'll explore how forgiveness accomplishes the goals of letting go, restoring justice, and living with imperfections in a context of love and trust. Finally, we'll delineate instances when the use of forgiveness as a clinical intervention might or might not be helpful.
