description The concept of forgiveness is reviewed and related to the process of psychological healing. Choosing to forgive is a paradoxical act that releases a person from the need to seek repayment or revenge for past insults or disappointments through an up-leveling or reframing process. Forgiveness is a core value of Christianity and other major religions; however, it is not well articulated in the therapeutic literature. It is proposed that understanding the dynamics of forgiveness can serve as a powerful therapeutic tool.
