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.

Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
My approach teaches you to depend on yourself and to be self-directed. You can learn to help yourself if you improve your discomfort tolerance for doing things for yourself, taking calculated risks, and accept yourself even when you fail.

Abby Cobey
Psychologist, PsyD
I get asked a lot about codependency. It's a tricky concept and behavior pattern that is so easy to fall into particularly if we have had substance abuse or really any type of abuse in our relationship history. It's about seeking to control without knowing that's what we're doing. We will work on making choices that are consistent with your values so that you end up in meaningful relationships in which you be around the people in your life without compromising yourself.

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.
