You can forgive someone and still decide what access they have to your life.
In Forgiveness With Boundaries, Louise Blount explores how compassion and clear limits can exist together. This practical guide separates forgiveness from trust and reconciliation, helping you identify what you need, express it simply, and follow through without requiring anyone else’s approval.
With examples from family, friendship, intimate relationships, work, and online life, the book offers thoughtful guidance for changing the shape of a relationship after hurt. It also explains why safety planning and specialist support matter when threats, control, or abuse are involved.
Inside, you’ll find:
- Short scripts for common boundary conversations
- Ways to decide what information, time, and contact you want to share
- Questions for assessing accountability and rebuilding trust
- Six illustrative case studies
- A four-week boundary practice and a one-page worksheet
- Research notes and further resources
Whether you hope to repair a relationship, keep it at a greater distance, or step away, this book helps you make a choice grounded in your needs and the other person’s actions. You can be compassionate without leaving yourself unprotected.
