Codependency
Cassandre Charnel
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Codependent relationships are often described as being marked by intimacy problems, dependency, control (including caretaking), denial, dysfunctional communication and boundaries, and high reactivity. There may be imbalance within the relationship, where one person is abusive or in control or supports or enables another person's addiction, poor mental health, immaturity, irresponsibility, or under-achievement.
Under this conception of codependency, the codependent person's sense of purpose within a relationship is based on making extreme sacrifices to satisfy their partner's needs. Codependent relationships signify a degree of unhealthy "clinginess" and needy behavior, where one person does not have self-sufficiency or autonomy. One or both parties depend on their loved one for fulfillment. The mood and emotions of the codependent are often determined by how they think other individuals perceive them (especially loved ones). This perception is self-inflicted and often leads to clingy, needy behavior which can hurt the health of the relationship.
Addressing codependency in one's life can be very freeing and is the key for many in establishing and defining a healthy relationship with self and others.

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S
Codependency therapy, also known as codependency counseling or codependency treatment, is a specialized form of counseling that focuses on assisting individuals to break codependent patterns and develop healthier relationships and boundaries. Codependency is a dysfunctional and facilitating relationship pattern in which individuals place the demands and desires of others above their own.
The therapeutic approach for codependency can vary based on the individual's unique requirements, the severity of their codependency, and their treatment objectives. Individuals can break free from codependent patterns, develop healthier relationship skills, and improve their emotional well-being through therapy.
If codependency is significantly affecting your relationships and well-being, it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a qualified mental health professional with experience in codependency therapy in order to address your specific needs and work towards building healthier relationships and a more satisfying life.

Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Codependency is a circular pattern that emerge in relationships when one person needs another person to need them in order to keep the relationship going. This is an unhealthy pattern and often leads to unhappiness and toxic patterns in relationships. I approach these relationships from a place of empathy and concern for all parties involved. It is my goal to illuminate these patterns and teach individuals to set healthy boundaries that will allow them to break free of codependent relationships and live healthier and happier lives with friends and family.
