Codependency
Shayda Ewalt
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Codependency often develops as a survival strategy, especially for those who grew up needing to prioritize others' emotions or safety over their own. You may struggle with boundaries, guilt, people-pleasing, or losing yourself in relationships. In therapy, we explore where these patterns began, strengthen your sense of self, and build capacity for relationships rooted in mutual respect rather than self-abandonment.

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.

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.

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.

Su Boudreau, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Domestic Violence Counselor
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. A therapist with certification in Domestic Violence would be the best person who can help the clients with the codependency issues in their relationship.

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.

Sandy Kong
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.

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.

Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
When my identity becomes wrapped up in what my partner thinks about me, I find myself in the codependant position. It becomes hard for me or my partner to feel anything because our feelings are so triggering to each other. If we were both healthy my partner could have a bad day or a bad mood and I could be fine. But when I am codependent, I need my partner to be happy all the time because if they mad, sad, or bad, it means there is something wrong with me and now I am in an identity crisis. If you can relate to this, reach out to us, we can help you engage principles of relational intelligence in your life that will support your emotional stability and relational well being.
