Codependency
Dr. L A McCrae
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCADC, FOT, CCTP, CCTSA
In our work on Codependency, we investigate the attachment wounds and systemic pressures that make "self-sacrifice" feel like survival. We use relational liberation tools to help you establish boundaries that protect your spirit while maintaining connection. Our goal is to move you from reactive caretaking to proactive, autonomous partnership.

Mikela Hallmark
Therapist, MS, LPC, LMHC
Codependency isn’t just about “losing yourself in a relationship.” It’s a survival strategy — often born from childhood environments where attunement, safety, or emotional permission were inconsistent or absent. In our work together, we gently unravel these patterns, not by labeling you as broken, but by honoring the intelligence of the parts that learned to over-function, over-give, and under-receive.
I help clients build internal boundaries before external ones — learning to recognize where they end and others begin. Together, we practice new relational templates rooted in self-trust, emotional honesty, and reciprocity. This isn’t about becoming “independent” in a vacuum. It’s about reclaiming yourself without losing connection — perhaps for the first time.

Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
I have worked with codependents for many years. John Bradshaw, a popular author and leader in this field, referred to me as a “Master Therapist.” The concept of Codependency, though not included in the Diagnostic Manual, points to relationships that have become dysfunctional with one person so enmeshed in being the Caregiver (the Giver) that they enable the other (the Taker) to constantly receive without giving support and care in return. This dynamic can occur in any kind of relationship, not just romantic. Although the role of the Giver arises out of loving kindness, there is an element of attachment to being the “Rescuer” that enables the Taker to continue their dysfunctional behaviors (e.g. substance abuse, gambling, sex addiction, abusiveness, etc.) as the Giver inadvertently shields them from the results of their dysfunctional behaviors. If this dynamic is not interrupted, the Giver eventually becomes exhausted, frustrated and burned out, in need of the support, healing, and self-awareness provided through therapy. I offer free zoom seminars, which give you a taste of how I can help with relationship issues. Please feel free to call for a consultation: 301-229-8000.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with young adults and adults who have learned to orient themselves around other people’s needs, emotions, or expectations at the expense of their own. This can look like being the reliable one, the steady one, the person others turn to, while privately feeling depleted, unseen, or unsure where your own preferences begin. Many people I see have spent years managing relationships, smoothing conflict, or carrying more than their share because it felt safer than disappointing someone or risking disconnection.
Codependent patterns often develop in situations where you had to stay attuned to others to keep the peace, where your worth was tied to being helpful or accommodating, or where expressing your own needs led to tension, withdrawal, or criticism. Over time, this can make it hard to trust your internal signals, set boundaries without guilt, or believe that your needs matter as much as anyone else’s.
In our work together, we look at how these patterns formed, what they have protected you from, and how they show up in your relationships today. We make space for the part of you that learned to stay small, agreeable, or over responsible in order to feel safe, and for the part of you that is tired of doing so much emotional labor. From there, we explore what it means to move through relationships with more clarity, self‑respect, and choice, without abandoning the parts of you that have worked so hard to keep things stable. Supporting people who have organized themselves around others for a long time is central to my practice, and I have deep respect for how much you have carried.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Codependency often reflects early relational patterns in which emotional needs, boundaries, and self-worth became entangled with the needs of others. My work integrates psychoanalytic exploration and somatic awareness to understand how these patterns continue to shape adult relationships. Together, we work toward greater emotional autonomy, clarity, and the capacity to remain connected to oneself while being close to others.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
So many of my clients, no matter what issue they initially come in for, have issues related to setting boundaries, communicating with their partners, and consent. I find that before doing any other work with them, I must teach them about consent, setting boundaries, and understanding relationship dynamics. In my sexuality training, I had to learn Betty Martin's Wheel of Consent, which has become the gold standard worldwide for teaching about consent. Certainly, for clients I work with around sexual issues of relationship issues, teaching the Wheel of Consent is the first step. Understanding relationship dynamics for the first time in their lives puts many clients' problems into a new perspective and often resolves their issues without having to do any other work, though we usually do just to clear any residue of past hurts and anger. We often do hypnosis focused on strengthening boundaries and building internal resources so they go forward in a stronger more positive way.

Pat Dudley
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LCPC, NCC
Codependency is a behavioral condition in a relationship where one person enables another person's addiction, poor mental health, immaturity, irresponsibility, or under-achievement. Among the core characteristics of codependency is an excessive reliance on other people for approval and a sense of identity. In our work together, we will explore/examine the issues related to the behavior and improve the reasoning behind co-dependency.

Andrea Miller
Counselor/Therapist, NCC
In my practice, I integrate elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients with codependency develop mindfulness skills and cultivate self-compassion while committing to actions that align with their values and autonomy. Additionally, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques assist clients in identifying and challenging maladaptive thought patterns and behaviors associated with codependency, promoting healthier boundaries and self-esteem. Incorporating Person-Centered Therapy principles, I provide a supportive and empathetic environment for clients to explore their emotions and experiences, empowering them to reconnect with their authentic selves and build healthier relationships.

Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
Patients with this disorder are getting resilient in no time. I get their habit disorder treated by my Dicit hyptherapy and clinical hypnosis. How Hypnotherapy Treats Codependency: Hypnotherapy works to change underlying, often subconscious, beliefs such as "I am only valuable if I am helping others" or "I must fix my partner's problems".Setting Boundaries: It helps individuals establish healthy emotional boundaries and gain the confidence to say "no" without guilt. Addressing Root Causes: By relaxing the mind, therapists can access memories or traumas that triggered the codependent behavior to foster emotional healing. Building Self-Esteem: Hypnotherapy helps individuals reconnect with their own needs, interests, and identity outside of the relationship.

Dr. Berkeley Antonioli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD, LCSW, LCSW-C, MEd
The majority of my training and clinical work has been focused on helping adults recover from early traumatic experiences. Often, the traumas my clients are working through is rooted in early relational and/or sexual experiences that leave a lasting impact on their formative developmental years and beyond. I have found that these early experiences often impact how clients have learned to operate and survive in relationships. Many have learned to defer to others, feeling like a burden if they consider and try to communicate their needs or limits, which is the foundation of codependency. These folks have learned to betray themselves in order to preserve their attachments, often leading to resentment, burnout, anxiety and depression.
