Codependency
Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You might be the one everyone leans on—always available, endlessly supportive, and quick to smooth things over. But underneath that strength, there’s a quiet exhaustion. Maybe you’ve spent so long tending to others that you’ve lost touch with your own voice. You may struggle to set boundaries, prioritize your own needs, or feel okay when someone else is upset. Maybe you define your worth through how much you give or help, but deep down, you’re craving space to just be… without performing, fixing, or proving.
At The Momentum Practice, I help clients untangle patterns of codependency that often start early—growing up in families where your worth was tied to being helpful, agreeable, or emotionally attuned to others. These patterns can show up in adult life in all kinds of relationships: romantic partnerships, friendships, caregiving roles, family systems, and even the workplace, where over-functioning often gets mistaken for excellence. You might find yourself constantly people-pleasing, second-guessing your instincts, or feeling panicked at the thought of being left behind. They can be especially layered for LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent folks who’ve had to mask parts of themselves to stay safe, loved, or accepted.
We’ll explore how these ways of relating helped you survive—and how they might be keeping you stuck now. Together, we’ll work on building boundaries that feel empowering (not selfish), tuning into your own needs and desires, and letting go of the belief that your value comes from how much you give. We’ll also look at how systemic pressures may have reinforced these patterns over time. Our work might include unlearning perfectionism, quieting the inner critic, and cultivating self-trust that isn’t tied to how much you do for others.
With over 15 years of experience, I offer a compassionate space to reconnect with your own voice and needs. You don’t have to keep disappearing in your relationships. Whether we’re working one-on-one or navigating these dynamics in couples therapy, you’ll have a space to explore what healthier, more mutual connection can look like. If you're ready to show up more fully for yourself and build connections that don’t come at the cost of your own well-being, I’d be honored to journey alongside you.

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.

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.

Salvadore Coaching LLC
Life Coach, Holistic Life Coach, Certified Breathwork Instructor, Certified Hypnotist
Codependency often begins as care, loyalty, or sensitivity—but over time it can become self-abandonment. And when you abandon yourself, you don’t actually protect the relationship—you weaken it.
Oftentimes, many people find themselves over-functioning, people-pleasing, managing another’s emotions, or staying in relationships that require them to shrink their needs in order to keep connection. The result is often a combination of anxiety, resentment, exhaustion, and a loss of clarity about what they actually want.
In our work together, we aim to de-escalate these patterns and explore what they’ve been protecting: perhaps a fear of conflict, abandonment, guilt, or the belief that love must be earned through sacrifice. We build practical skills for boundaries, self-trust, and direct communication, so you can stay connected without losing yourself. The goal is not to become “less caring,” but to create relationships that include you—relationships where care and reciprocity can coexist.
