Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Setting healthy boundaries is something many of us did not effectively learn in childhood, even in the most well meaning and loving of families. We have, instead, learned to live life to serve others and to prioritize the needs of others, even when doing so harms ourselves. My approach is to help my clients create healthy boundaries, advocate for the self, learn to communicate our needs clearly and directly, and then learn to act upon the needs we have outlined to those we love so we can cultivate healthy and mutually effective relationships. Cutting the ties of codependency is central to this process: staying in one's own lane, letting others solve their own problems, offering compassion and help when asked, letting go of the rescue fantasy, living without an emotional hangover, and learning to accept that there is much we cannot control.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
I use Somatic Experiencing to help you tune into your own wants and needs so you can start learning to have a clearer sense of your boundaries, as well as the strength to set them.
A lot of relationships are labeled as 'codependent', but sometimes it can be more accurate to say that it's become easier for you to guess at what your partner wants than it is to know what you want.
Once you get more connected to what you want, it can become easier to have those conversations with your partner, and easier to stand strong in your needs.

Co-dependency is an expression of the False Self developed in a narcissistic &/or alcoholic home. It's the compulsion to find one's identity through the eyes of other people, instead of from inside oneself. (Blog : 2017)

Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Codependency can show up as a strong focus on others’ needs at the expense of your own, difficulty setting boundaries, or feeling responsible for how others think and feel. In therapy, we’ll explore how these patterns developed and what they’ve come to mean for you. By building greater awareness and a more balanced sense of self, you can begin to set clearer boundaries, feel more grounded in your own needs, and create relationships that feel more mutual and sustainable.

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In helping patients struggling with codependency, I provide a supportive and nonjudgmental environment for them to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Through therapy, we work together to identify patterns of codependent behavior and the underlying beliefs that drive them. I offer guidance and tools to help patients develop healthier coping mechanisms, set boundaries, and prioritize their own needs and well-being. Additionally, I provide education about healthy relationships and communication skills, empowering patients to cultivate more fulfilling connections with others while maintaining their sense of self. My goal is to support patients in breaking free from codependency, fostering self-compassion, and building a life based on authenticity, autonomy, and resilience.

Codependency can feel like being trapped in over-responsibility for others while neglecting yourself. Using IFS, attachment-focused work. I help clients understand the parts of them driving these patterns and build healthier boundaries. Narrative and experiential therapies further support reclaiming self-worth and agency. I also offer diagnostic clarity when codependent patterns overlap with trauma, depression, or personality features.

Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Codependency often develops so gradually that most people don't recognize it until they are completely exhausted — emotionally drained by relationships that consistently prioritize everyone else's needs over their own. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I help adults identify and break codependent relationship patterns, rebuild healthy boundaries, and develop a stronger, more secure sense of self. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic insight, and trauma-informed care, I work with clients to untangle the deep-rooted beliefs driving codependent behavior and build genuinely healthier relationships. Telehealth therapy for codependency available across 40+ states.

Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals struggling with codependency by helping them better understand patterns of over-reliance, people-pleasing, and difficulty setting boundaries in relationships. Codependency often involves prioritizing others’ needs at the expense of your own, which can lead to resentment, burnout, and a loss of sense of self. In therapy, we focus on increasing self-awareness, building healthier boundaries, and strengthening your ability to identify and communicate your own needs. I incorporate CBT and DBT-based strategies, including interpersonal effectiveness skills, to help challenge unhelpful beliefs and support you in developing more balanced, fulfilling relationships.
