Codependency
Jane Bennett-Elias
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC
It's great to be a nice person. It's another thing to be someone who feels depleted and resentful because you feel you give your all to those around you without receiving the same treatment in return. Are your moods defined by how others feel about you? Do you have trouble setting and keeping boundaries with others? These might be signs of codependent patterning. Patterns can be changed, however. You can learn how to have good boundaries and still be a nice person.

Emily Zibell
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, NCC
Sometimes we get into patterns where we put others before ourselves and end up neglecting our own needs in the process. When working with codependency patterns, I think it is important to relearn who we are as individuals and let that set the stage to better set boundaries with others and have healthier and more fulfilling relationships.

I enjoy working with individuals impacted by addiction and/ or narcissistic abuse. Through evidence based approaches, we can work together to change your patterns of thinking, feeling and relating to reorient towards your own wellbeing and growth as an individual.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Setting healthy boundaries is something many of us did not effectively learn in childhood, even in the most well meaning and loving of families. We have, instead, learned to live life to serve others and to prioritize the needs of others, even when doing so harms ourselves. My approach is to help my clients create healthy boundaries, advocate for the self, learn to communicate our needs clearly and directly, and then learn to act upon the needs we have outlined to those we love so we can cultivate healthy and mutually effective relationships. Cutting the ties of codependency is central to this process: staying in one's own lane, letting others solve their own problems, offering compassion and help when asked, letting go of the rescue fantasy, living without an emotional hangover, and learning to accept that there is much we cannot control.
