Andrea Rowell
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
It can feel disorienting or unsafe to get to know yourself, especially if you've come across people with such contagious emotions that you don't know what feelings are yours. You don't have to do this alone. My approach centers our relationship as a priority and you may even find that learning IFS (internal family systems) as an approach may help you to experience more safety within your own body.

Whitney Reinhart
Registered Psychotherapist, MA., RP.
Codependency can look so different from person to person and relationship to relationship. Often times when we are in these types of relationships, we can feel fully dependent on others to meet all our attachment needs and can feel extremely powerless, insecure, and fearful when these needs aren't met. For others, it can look like needing to take control of most aspects of the relationship and our partners to create a sense of certainty and security, which can leave us in distress when we lose that "control". I hope to help you understand your feelings and needs, learn how to express those to your partner, set healthy boundaries, and build independence and internal self-esteem.

Nisrine Maktabi
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Psychology
Codependency runs rampant in our societies today. Codependency is a sign of abandoning, giving up yourself and losing your true voice out of fear of not getting others validation, approval and praise. Enmeshed families are especially detrimental to your self esteem when you give up your own needs and desires in order to give others the daughter, sister, or wife they want. Together we help your psychic inner child grow up with you so that they do not have to keep you acting in codependent ways.

Joshua Lewis
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CT
It is possible to have a healthy, mutually satisfying relationship with your partner that holds room and respect for all the unique and curious ways that you each function as separate individuals within a supportive bond. We will take time to understand the ways in which we form relationships with others and how these, primarily unconscious and nonverbal, patterns get laid down early in life and are often transmitted across generations. My approach is to work from an attachment-oriented psychotherapy lens that takes into account the here/now relational experience of the therapeutic relationship between us.

Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, IMD (candidate)
Codependency is a relationship type, and is often wonderful until it's not. When it's not, boundaries come in. Boundaries are essential to all relationships because it allows you to form the ideal relationship you want. Understanding what the codependent relationship was providing you with allows an understanding and compassion to intentionally take steps towards your ideal behaviors and ways of relating.

Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, RCT, RCC, CCC, ATR-P
At Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy, we specialize in supporting individuals struggling with codependency issues. Codependency is a complex and challenging pattern of behavior that often involves placing excessive focus on others' needs while neglecting one's own emotional well-being and boundaries. Our therapeutic approach is designed to help individuals break free from codependent patterns, cultivate self-awareness, and foster healthier relationships with themselves and others.
Through a relational lens, we explore the underlying beliefs and behaviors that contribute to codependency, focusing on building self-esteem, assertiveness, and self-care practices. Our therapists create a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to examine their relational dynamics, set boundaries, and develop a deeper understanding of their own needs and values.
Using somatic interventions, we help clients reconnect with their bodies and emotions, facilitating a deeper sense of self-awareness and grounding. By incorporating mindfulness techniques and body-centered practices, we support individuals in developing a greater sense of agency, presence, and resilience in their relationships.
Our goal is to empower individuals to cultivate healthy boundaries, enhance self-esteem, and nurture a balanced sense of self-reliance and interdependence. Through personalized therapeutic interventions and compassionate support, we guide clients on a transformative journey towards breaking free from codependency, fostering self-compassion, and reclaiming their autonomy and emotional well-being.
At Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy, we are dedicated to providing a supportive and empowering space where individuals can explore and heal from codependency, fostering growth, authenticity, and self-empowerment in their relationships and personal lives.

Dale Bryan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Do you have relationships where you feel compelled to "save" them by attending to all of their needs and in turn you neglect all of your own needs? Or do you experience in relationships feeling like you need the other person to take care of you but you also feel smothered or resentment? Codependency in relationships comes from attachment wounds, which can be understood and healed so that you can end unhealthy relationships or work to change behavioural patterns in relationships in your present life. I can help you learn to make these changes and better understand your relational patterns.
