Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Patterns of overgiving, difficulty setting boundaries, or losing a sense of self in relationships often develop over time and can feel hard to change. I help individuals understand these patterns at a deeper level—where they come from and how they continue to play out. Through this work, clients begin to develop clearer boundaries, stronger self-awareness, and more balanced, fulfilling relationships.

Charis Khoury
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
For those that were trained to self-abandon, returning "home" and learning to derive self worth from more reliable (internal) sources is one of the most rewarding achievements.

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I work from an attachment perspective with codependency, recognizing codependency as a style of relating often learned early in life, sometimes from within in the womb. We'll explore stories of connection: such as when you have felt most seen and heard, loved and cherished, as well as when you have felt yourself chameleon-ing to keep someone present in your life. We'll really look at what the cues are for when you feel safe to stay in the integrity of your Core Self vs. when you find yourself sacrificing what you really want to meet the needs of others, weighing them as more valuable than yourself. I'll reflect back to you when I see you excelling in moments of prioritizing yourself without disrespecting others, a beautiful balance of self- and other-love that allows for each person to be their own individual within the relationship.

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.

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.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
When working with codependency, I often start by helping clients shift their attention inward—especially if they’ve spent much of their lives attuned to others' needs at the expense of their own. Codependent patterns can make it hard to locate a sense of self, to understand boundaries, or even to recognize one’s own desires and emotional cues. In our work, we slow down and begin to rebuild that connection to your internal experience. Through somatic awareness, parts work, and a focus on early relational dynamics, we explore how these patterns developed and gently begin to create space for a more grounded, self-connected way of relating to yourself and others.

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.

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.

California Center for Change
Psychologist, PhD
When someone you love is struggling with addiction, it is easy to lose yourself in the effort to help them. You may find yourself managing their crises, making excuses for their behavior, or putting your own needs so far aside that you can no longer remember what they were. Codependency is not a character flaw. It is a learned pattern and it can change. We work with partners, parents, and family members to help them set healthier boundaries, rebuild their own sense of self, and find more effective ways to support their loved one without sacrificing their own wellbeing in the process.

Robin Bates-Pualuan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
Do you find it difficult to say no? Do you always put the needs of others ahead of your own? Do you feel selfish when you take care of yourself? While many people who answer yes to these questions have a generous heart, they can end up feeling used up, taken advantage of, and burned out. Therapy can be a great place to learn to understand the importance of your own needs and how to meet them in a way that's self-nourishing, not selfish.

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.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I work with adults who struggle with patterns often described as codependence, including over-responsibility for others, people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, and a sense of self that becomes organised around relationships. These patterns are usually adaptive responses developed over time, rather than personal failings.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to understand how these relational strategies developed and what they may be protecting. Sessions focus on increasing clarity about needs, limits, and patterns of attachment, allowing different ways of relating to emerge. We may work through conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.

Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, LCSW
In my therapeutic practice, I address codependency as a complex interplay of emotional dynamics that often stems from deep-seated needs for approval, validation, and love. This pattern of behavior, while initially developed as a survival strategy in response to challenging relational environments, can lead to a loss of self-identity, boundary issues, and an overarching sense of dissatisfaction in one's relationships and personal life. Recognizing codependency as a sign of the soul's longing for genuine connection and self-realization, I offer a compassionate space for individuals to explore and understand these patterns, fostering a journey towards healing and autonomy.
The focus of our work together is on unraveling the layers of codependency, identifying its roots in past experiences, and understanding its impact on current relationships and self-perception. By cultivating self-awareness and self-compassion, clients are guided towards reclaiming their independence, establishing healthier boundaries, and developing a stronger sense of self-worth. This transformative process not only improves relationships with others but also deepens the connection to oneself, enabling a life lived with more authenticity and fulfillment.
Emphasizing the importance of personal growth and empowerment, my approach seeks to empower individuals to break free from the cycles of codependency, leading to a life marked by healthier relationships, emotional resilience, and a profound sense of inner freedom. Together, we work to create a future where one can engage in relationships not out of neediness or fear, but from a place of strength, wholeness, and genuine love.
