New Beginnings Christian Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Codependency often develops from early attachment wounds, trauma, or environments where love felt conditional. You may find yourself over-functioning, people-pleasing, struggling with boundaries, or tying your worth to being needed. In therapy, we gently explore the roots of these patterns and help you build a stronger, more secure sense of self. Together, we work on developing healthy boundaries, emotional regulation, and self-worth grounded in truth—not performance—so you can experience balanced, life-giving relationships rather than exhausting ones.

Codependency often develops as a survival strategy but can limit authentic connection and self-fulfillment.

Candace Plattor
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Adler University
When we keep trying to put other people's needs ahead of our own, we lose ourselves in terms of our self-care and our self-respect. Often families do this with the addicts they love - and it creates a lose-lose situation for everyone concerned,

Susanna La
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Codependency is about relationships and how others can affect us in unhealthy ways. This can often look like being consumed by worries for how others are doing (family, friends, colleagues, etc.), people-pleasing, not expressing our own thoughts/feelings, and/or losing our sense of self. Our identity can be dependent on trying to “fix” other people’s problems and not focusing on our own. This may also be due to not recognizing our own emotions and/or problems. Therapy can help you improve the relationship you have with yourself and others.

Patricia Fahmy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Codependent patterns often develop as adaptations to earlier relationships and environments where love, approval, or emotional safety felt uncertain. You may find yourself prioritizing others' needs, struggling to set boundaries, feeling responsible for other people's emotions, or losing touch with your own needs. I help you understand the origins of these patterns, build healthier boundaries, strengthen your sense of self, and create relationships that feel more balanced, secure, and fulfilling.

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.

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.

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.

I work with codependent clients to help them understand how their behavior achieves the opposite of the healthy outcome they desire by creating an inverse motivational structure.

Dr. Mazmanyan and Associates
Psychologist, Ph.D
Codependency can show up in different ways. Feeling needy, vulnerable, stuck, list goes on. Understanding attachment patterns and how to change them is integral to becoming more securely attached and less co-dependent.

Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
Patients with this disorder are getting resilient in no time. I get their habit disorder treated by my Dicit hyptherapy and clinical hypnosis. How Hypnotherapy Treats Codependency: Hypnotherapy works to change underlying, often subconscious, beliefs such as "I am only valuable if I am helping others" or "I must fix my partner's problems".Setting Boundaries: It helps individuals establish healthy emotional boundaries and gain the confidence to say "no" without guilt. Addressing Root Causes: By relaxing the mind, therapists can access memories or traumas that triggered the codependent behavior to foster emotional healing. Building Self-Esteem: Hypnotherapy helps individuals reconnect with their own needs, interests, and identity outside of the relationship.
