Codependency
Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Codependency means well. It has the best of intentions. It is only trying to help, to be of service, to protect, to belong. And yet, within a confined space, there is not enough air to breathe, no room to grow, and for folks in a family or in a relationship, the effects stifle and suffocate, and slowly, slowly, slowly, like a frog in boiling water, you don't realize the difficult space you are in until it is almost too late. Let's untie the cords that bind you in your relationships with others!

Matthew Bishop
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctorate in Behavioral Health Leadership
Codependency often shows up as caring for others while ignoring yourself. In therapy, I help clients notice these patterns, understand where they come from, and practice healthier boundaries. The work is about finding a way to give and receive love without losing yourself in the process.

Chris 'Bucky' Bateman
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Codependency often develops quietly over years, saying yes when you mean no, losing yourself in other people's needs, and measuring your worth by how well you take care of everyone else. Therapy helps you recognize these patterns, understand where they came from, and build a healthier relationship with yourself and others, one where your needs matter too.

Rose Snyder, EdM, PsyD, LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
Many of my clients find themselves in codependent relationships as a result of their lifelong attachment styles. Together we will look at these patterns and I will support you in gently shifting these patterns away from codependence towards effective interdependence. It is not about learning to be totally self-reliant either—it is more about having a secure attachment within yourself as a primary source of stability, and then reaching out for connection with others from a whole/healthy place. We are social creatures and we need one another, but we feel better when we can relate with others from a place of sturdiness as much as possible too. From that place, we can ask for our needs to be met and connection to be fulfilled, knowing deeply that we have the right to ask and deserve to be attuned to and met by those closest to us. And we can also learn to self-soothe in the moments that that is not available or possible with our loved ones.

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.

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.

Leila Tabatabaee
Psychologist, PhD
We learn the rules of love and relationship at a very young age. Often times the things we learn help us to survive our childhood environment. These same survival skills may not always continue to serve out adult relationships. Learning to relate and develop intimacy in a more healthy way can have a tremendous impact on the quality of your relationships and your life.

Nes Pinar Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I help clients untangle patterns of codependency by slowing down, getting curious, and reconnecting with their own needs, boundaries, and inner wisdom. Together, we explore the stories and survival strategies that once kept you safe but now keep you stuck, making space for more choice, agency, and self‑trust. My approach is warm, relational, and steady—supporting you as you practice new ways of relating that feel authentic, mutual, and sustainable.

Emily Echeverria
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, MS
People-pleasing, conflict avoidance, difficulty setting boundaries, caretaking at the expense of oneself, and intense anxiety in relationships can often be signs of codependency. Many people don't feel like they can be okay unless everyone they love is okay. This can appear of loving but often feels exhausting. I work with clients to help them understand where their codependent behaviors originated and how they currently impact their life so that client's can process unconscious fears and become more independent, confident, and healthier in relationships.

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.
