Patricia Scholl
Life Coach, CASAC trained, BA in Communications
Since you might have lost yourself, you look elsewhere to define who you are. Many times it's another person. We don't realize that we have everything we need within us. We look outwardly and begin to define ourselves with what we wear, drive, who we spend time with, what we do with our time and the more we do this, the farther away we are from contentment and knowing who we truly are as a person..

Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist & Psychoanalyst
Codependency, also known as unconscious accommodation, develops when we maintain important connections that require us to set aside our own needs or inner world to feel safe and still connected. Over time, this can lead to chronic self-sacrifice and uncertainty about where you end and others begin.
In psychoanalytic work, we explore how these patterns took shape and what parts of you were set aside to preserve closeness. As this becomes clearer, many people begin to reclaim a stronger sense of inner authority and move toward relationships that allow for mutuality rather than self-erasure.

Jennifer Pudlo Therapy & Wellness Consulting
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Codependency often develops from a deep desire to care for others, yet it can leave you feeling emotionally exhausted, disconnected from your own needs, and unsure of who you are outside of your relationships. Together, we'll explore the experiences and patterns that have shaped these dynamics, helping you develop healthier boundaries, greater self-awareness, and stronger self-worth. My goal is to empower you to build relationships that are balanced, authentic, and rooted in mutual respect rather than guilt, fear, or the need to please others.

Dr. Trevor Alleman
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
I have helped many clients understand and overcome co-dependency issues. This work is often referred to as differentiation work. It is not easy to have a mind of your own when the people who raised you brought you into their internal dramas and played them out with you. I am here to help such people find their voice and their own unique sense of self.

Annalisa Barrett
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
When we liberate ourselves from the grips of codependency, we learn to choose ourselves and stop letting others run our lives. This involves boundary work as well as exploring rehearsed patterns of self abandonment.

Barbara Jaurequi Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT, MAC
Don't waste your life obsessing about the problems of someone else. Don't spend all your energy trying to control the behaviors of anyone. Codependency is a real addiction that masquerades as love. Love shouldn't hurt...love isn't self-destructive, but codependency is. This is an area of psychotherapy that I know VERY well. I will help you put the focus back on your own life - where it belongs. Nothing is more maddening than trying to do the impossible again and again only to fail again and again. That's codependency in a nut shell. The good news is that you can recover from codependency and learn to be happy. I use Reality Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy interventions to help you get your life back in order and I will teach you ways to change codependent patterns so you can make healthy, self-respecting choices for a better life.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
So many of my clients, no matter what issue they initially come in for, have issues related to setting boundaries, communicating with their partners, and consent. I find that before doing any other work with them, I must teach them about consent, setting boundaries, and understanding relationship dynamics. In my sexuality training, I had to learn Betty Martin's Wheel of Consent, which has become the gold standard worldwide for teaching about consent. Certainly, for clients I work with around sexual issues of relationship issues, teaching the Wheel of Consent is the first step. Understanding relationship dynamics for the first time in their lives puts many clients' problems into a new perspective and often resolves their issues without having to do any other work, though we usually do just to clear any residue of past hurts and anger. We often do hypnosis focused on strengthening boundaries and building internal resources so they go forward in a stronger more positive way.

Mona Saba Valeriano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Many clients who grew up with parental alcoholism, chronic rage, or narcissistic or borderline traits find themselves struggling with codependency in adult relationships. Early environments shaped by volatility or emotional unpredictability can create profound anxiety in children, threatening their sense of safety and attachment. In response, many learn to prioritize maintaining connection at any cost—often at the expense of their own needs, feelings, and boundaries.
Using an integrative approach that includes IFS parts work, ISTDP, and the somatic processing of EMDR and Brainspotting, I help clients rebuild their relationship with themselves—strengthening self-esteem, self-trust, and assertiveness. As clients deepen their internal security, their external relationships often shift as well. They become more able to show up authentically, tolerate conflict, and make choices aligned with their well-being rather than fear.

Christina Dee
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A. LMFT
Codependency often develops as a survival strategy but can limit authentic connection and self-fulfillment. I help clients recognize and shift unhealthy relationship patterns, establish boundaries, and reconnect with their own needs and identity—supporting healthy interdependence while honoring personal values and well-being.

Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Growing up in a less than nurturing environment can lead to all sorts of codependent traits, resulting in struggles with: self-esteem, self-care, boundaries, controlling others, taking care of your adult needs, perfectionism, and emotional flooding, to name a few. I am well versed in the 12-step program of codependents anonymous and the issues that are helped through attending meetings. I recommend the program, but it is not required to understand or heal the above issues.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I help individuals and couples who feel stuck in codependent patterns that leave them feeling overwhelmed, resentful, or disconnected from themselves or each other. Codependency can show up as difficulty setting boundaries, prioritizing others at the expense of your own needs, fear of conflict or abandonment, or feeling responsible for a partner’s emotions or behavior. Over time, these patterns can strain relationships and erode trust and intimacy.
In therapy, we work to identify how these patterns developed and how they continue to affect communication and emotional balance in your relationship. I help couples learn healthier ways to express needs, tolerate discomfort, and support one another without losing a sense of self. This often includes developing clearer boundaries, improving emotional regulation, and building more balanced and mutual connection.
The goal is not to create distance, but to strengthen relationships by helping each person feel more grounded, autonomous, and secure. As these changes take shape, many couples find that conflict becomes more manageable and intimacy feels more genuine and sustainable.

Matthew Kijak, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Codependency can be like a heavy burden, pulling us down and clouding our vision. But, together, we can learn to navigate our relationships and find balance. As a therapist, my goal is to be a compassionate guide on your journey towards understanding and transcending patterns of codependency. Together, we will explore the underlying causes of your behaviors, and develop effective strategies for healthy communication and boundaries. We'll use mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques to help you understand the impact of your actions on others, and work towards advocating for your own needs in social situations. My guidance will be gentle and understanding, as we work towards a brighter future, with healthier and more fulfilling relationships. Let's start this journey together, and take the first step towards inner peace and self-discovery.
