Editorial Reviews

Review

“This is a book for all adults working on forgiveness. Dr. Cohen’s expertise jumps off each page with easy skill-building coping activities. If 10 minutes a day is all you have, this will help you learn to work on letting go and growing in your forgiveness. I am happy to recommend this book to anyone who wants to heal and grow.” —Dr. Edrica D. Richardson, LMFT, CEO of Richardson Psychotherapeutic & Consulting, Ltd.

“There is something about Dr. Ilene Cohen's writing. With each book she publishes, she seems to speak to you on a level unlike any other, like she knows exactly what you need to hear, what you need to heal, and how to go about helping you do so. Now, with The Forgiveness Workbook, Dr. Cohen goes even deeper, affording readers the tools to take their present life into their own hands and mold it in the most empowered way possible for a healthier, happier future.” —Michelle Dempsey-Multack, MS, CDS, president and founder of Moms Moving On

“Dr. Ilene Cohen has done it again in her latest book on forgiveness. After many years of research and clinical practice, Dr. Cohen has developed a series of practices and exercises to assist people to navigate the emotional processes of anger, resentment, and disappointment toward the horizon of forgiveness and equanimity. Each chapter addresses a different aspect of managing and mastering the challenges involved in forgiveness. Reading this book provides a map to take daily steps to more mature functioning. I believe those who read it will be rewarded with improved relationships as well.” —Jim Rudes, PhD, associate professor of counseling

Get it! Trust it. Stick through it.
I’m not even done with the workbook, but I love it already. This is definitely a must if one isn’t exactly ready to meet with a therapist or if financial means for therapy is the issue…get this. I have some background and education in psychology and child development/education…and this is pretty legit in how it’s set up. I think someone in a review mentioned it was repetitive in some parts, but it’s not. The thing is you have to really take this serious. Dig deep. Feel into it. You’re suppose to break everything apart. Focus on the biggest thing/person/experience/situation that just keeps pulling you and have had issues getting those emotions or thoughts out of mind. Some questions might make you feel like , “wait I think I answered that.”. But re-read the question and review the section (stage) you are in, and what you have previously wrote. Think deeper, there has to be more emotion or thoughts or connections to be made and let out.I go about the workbook in small chunks. Because there are parts…you should be taking time to reflect on and come back to. Or read it well and then take a moment, as it advices you to, reflect on it, feel it. Follow through.There should be more workbooks like this one. 🙏🏼 Love it.When I finish a page or a few pages, I feel so much better about so much. I understand we can all journal and write out a lot to heal in any journal. But this is guided very well in my opinion. So that you focus on what is needed to understand or be on your way to, forgiveness and understanding oneself.I love how it makes me feel afterwards. It definitely feels safe. And it feels good to know this workbook is by someone with the proper education and experience of the subject.Worth it. Get it. Do it for yourself. It will be a huge favor. It’s self-love. If you don’t know where to start. Start here.But feel into it. Follow through. Reflect and do it.We have more than enough thoughts floating in our mind, body and spirit to more than fill up the pages on this workbook. Get them out. ♥︎

I’ve been working on this book for quite some time and I’m not sure that I making any progress because it just seems like I’m being asked the same question in different ways. Also, it’s quite a bit of reflective writing so if you are not the type to journal, then this book isn’t for you. However I really like how easy it is to read and the layout is pleasing to the eyes.

Great book. My husband had an affair and I have struggled to move on even though he regularly apologizes when he sees I am upset. This book helped me minimize the pain of the affair and empower myself to speak up for myself. I am able to see the facts of what happened and forgive myself and them without removing their responsibility for their actions which helped me not feel victimized. I’m not a big believer in forgiveness and I was genuinely surprised at how this process helped me access the dignity that was ripped from me. Looking to move forward without being a doormat? This book will help with that!

I have always had a difficult time with forgiveness, I found this book to help work through the steps and find my own way toward forgiveness for those who have hurt me. I think that most importantly, the forgiveness was for me, not for the others. And it helped free me move forward and let go of anger. I liked the self pace reflective questions, as it allowed me do self-exploration to find my own truth and answers. I also liked that there was explanation of the forgiveness process along with the question. This book helped me be patient with the non-linear process of forgiving other and myself, as it has a kind and understanding approach to forgiveness.
