Dr. Brittany Jacobson
Psychologist, PhD, CST
You may find yourself prioritizing others’ needs, emotions, or expectations at the expense of your own. Together, we explore the patterns that keep you overextended or disconnected from yourself, often rooted in early relationships or learned roles. I will help you honor your own needs and voice, develop clearer boundaries, and connect to others without abandoning yourself.

Inner World Counseling Services PLLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Codependency often develops as a brilliant survival strategy in response to past trauma or unpredictable environments. If you find yourself constantly reading the room, managing everyone else’s moods, or feeling an intense wave of guilt whenever you try to say 'no,' you are likely trapped in a codependent loop. I help chronic peacekeepers and over-functioners dismantle the 'fawn' response that keeps them neglecting their own needs. Together, we will work to untangle your identity from the burdens of others, quiet the fear of conflict, and build the confidence to set firm, healthy boundaries without the crushing weight of guilt

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.

Chad T. Allen
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LPCC
I am a psychoanalyst in private practice in the Minneapolis–St. Paul area, working with adults who find themselves consistently prioritizing others’ needs at the expense of their own or feeling overly responsible for the emotional well-being of those around them. Patterns often described as codependency frequently develop in response to earlier relational experiences and can lead to difficulty setting boundaries or maintaining a stable sense of self within relationships.
My work is grounded in the belief that these patterns have understandable emotional origins. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy offers a space to explore how these relational dynamics developed and how they continue to shape current relationships. Through increased understanding, individuals can begin to experience greater freedom in balancing closeness with autonomy and in developing relationships that feel more mutual and sustainable.
I also work with couples who wish to better understand how these patterns affect communication and intimacy.

Shelley Klammer
Counselor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
If you are a heart-centred, empathic woman, you might have challenges setting healthy boundaries with people and could be stuck in fawning, pleasing, and appeasing patterns to feel safe and connected. I can support you in defining your values and setting either flexible or non-negotiable boundaries, depending on the circumstances. I can help you move through self-doubt and into your authentic self-expression. The therapy that I offer is in-depth and often involves going back to the inner child, where your inner defense patterns and relationship patterns began, to initiate deep emotional healing and safety.

Brent Peak
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Codependency can feel like you’re constantly managing other people’s emotions, needs, and reactions—while your own get pushed aside. You may feel guilty when you say no, anxious when someone is upset with you, or responsible for making sure everyone around you is okay. Maybe you find yourself over-explaining, avoiding conflict, or bending over backward to keep the peace. Deep down, you might wonder, “Who am I if I’m not needed?” or “Why do I always end up in one-sided relationships?” These patterns didn’t appear out of nowhere—they were learned in childhood, often in environments where love, approval, or safety felt tied to how well you could care for others. When you were young, putting others first may have been necessary for survival—but now, it’s keeping you stuck in exhaustion, resentment, and self-doubt.
But you don’t have to keep living this way. Healing from codependency isn’t about becoming selfish—it’s about learning that your needs, emotions, and boundaries matter just as much as everyone else’s. Using Post-Induction Therapy (PIT), I help clients heal the childhood wounds that created these patterns, so they can stop seeking self-worth through overgiving and start building relationships based on mutual respect and emotional balance. Therapy helps you stop feeling responsible for other people’s happiness, set boundaries without guilt, and finally put yourself on your own priority list. You don’t have to prove your worth by constantly doing for others—you are already enough, just as you are.

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.
