Dr. Michael Marossy
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Codependency often develops when a person becomes overly focused on the emotional needs, approval, behaviors, or wellbeing of others while losing connection with their own needs, identity, and emotional boundaries. Many individuals struggling with codependent patterns experience chronic guilt, people-pleasing, fear of rejection, difficulty setting boundaries, emotional exhaustion, or repeated involvement in unhealthy or one-sided relationships.
I help clients better understand the relational and emotional patterns underlying codependency while developing greater self-awareness, emotional autonomy, assertiveness, and healthier interpersonal boundaries. Therapy focuses on helping clients build more balanced and authentic relationships without losing their sense of self in the process.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 119380
Ever feel like your worth is attached to someone else's behavior? What they do or don't do for you? Or what you can or can't do for them? Codependency is when your sense of self-worth and identity starts to depend too much on someone else. Healthy relationships are mutually beneficial, providing love and support to both parties. Codependent relationships, on the other hand, are lopsided, casting one person in the role of constant caregiver. Over time, this dynamic can lead to emotional burnout, resentment, low self-esteem, and difficulty forming mutually healthy relationships. In a healthy relationship, both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity separate from the other person.
Codependency can start for many different reasons, often going back to your early life and the relationships you had growing up. For many people, codependency begins in childhood, particularly in environments marked by addiction, neglect, emotional volatility, or inconsistent caregiving. If you grew up in a home where one or both caregivers were emotionally unavailable, unpredictable, or overly dependent on you for support, you may have learned, consciously or not, that love and safety were earned by putting others’ needs before your own. Cultural messages, especially ones that tell you always to put others’ needs before your own, can also play a big role, especially for women. If you struggle with low self-esteem or have trouble setting boundaries, it can make you more likely to fall into codependent patterns in your relationships.

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.

Susana Scotti, Journey Psychotherapy
Psychologist, PhD
Struggling with codependency can leave you feeling emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns, and unsure of your own needs or boundaries. You may find yourself prioritizing others at the expense of your well-being, feeling responsible for fixing or rescuing those around you, or experiencing guilt when you try to put yourself first. As a licensed psychologist with expertise in trauma, addiction, and mood disorders, I understand how codependent patterns often develop as a way to cope with past experiences and relational wounds. In therapy, we work together to uncover these underlying dynamics, build self-awareness, and strengthen your sense of identity and self-worth.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I help clients develop healthier boundaries, improve communication, and learn how to engage in relationships from a place of balance rather than obligation or fear. Whether codependency is connected to past trauma, substance use, or ongoing anxiety or depression, our work will focus on helping you create more fulfilling, stable, and authentic connections, starting with the relationship you have with yourself.

Codependency is common in relationships either in a couple's or familial relationships. First finding out unhealthy codependency and acknowledging it is the initial step toward building a healthier relationship.

Codependency often shows up as putting others' needs before your own, struggling with boundaries, and losing yourself in relationships. If you find yourself constantly trying to please others, feeling responsible for their emotions, or staying in unhealthy dynamics, you may be experiencing codependency. In our work together, I’ll help you recognize patterns of codependency, explore their origins, and develop healthier ways to relate to others. My goal is to support you in reclaiming your sense of self, establishing strong boundaries, and building fulfilling, balanced relationships.

Whole Wellness Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Codependency is a tough habit to break. It is typically paired with a desire to help others, but we can become so consumed with someone elses life that we completely lose sight of our own. This can impact our ability to care for ourselves. This can impact our relationships with others. Getting help from a trained professional can offer some tools and self-insight that will help to break off the unhealthy parts of this habit, while still maintaining the parts of helping and supporting others that our clients enjoy.

David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
Codependency is much more than spending a lot of time with someone else. It is being tangled up together like 2 sets of stringed lights and when one tries to pull away to do something independently, the other feels threatened, upset, abandoned, or a variety of other experiences. These are often rooted in a childhood where healthy boundaries were not modeled.
