Co-dependency occurs when individuals find their identity solely by way of their interactions with others. These interactions might include romantic relationships, friend relationships, or relationship within their family network. While deeply held relationships are important for our emotional health, certain personality types are more prone to seeing these relationships become co-dependent ones which rob people of their individual identity as opposed to help foster it.

Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
I specialize in codependency in women. Codependency starts in childhood when you begin people pleasing to feel loved and accepted. You lose a sense of who you are, lack boundaries, and have a hard time being assertive. You may have anxiety/depression, low self worth and reach outside of yourself to fill that emptiness inside. I can help you manage your emotions instead of feeling overwhelmed by them and feel fulfilled and confident. You may even be struggling with a break up, I can help you feel more whole again message me for a free 15 minute phone consultation.

Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
If you overgive, overfunction, or feel responsible for other people’s emotions, it can slowly erase you. Therapy helps you untangle guilt, build boundaries, and shift from earning love to receiving it. You’ll learn how to stay caring without self-abandonment.

Codependency can show up as overgiving, people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, fear of disappointing others, or losing yourself in relationships. Therapy can help you understand where these patterns came from and begin building a stronger sense of self. Together, we can work toward healthier boundaries, self-trust, and more balanced relationships.

Donna Wigmore Counselling Services
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, CT
They say that people who grow up in a home where one parent has an addiction will mean that we develop codependency. This means that we will always be looking outside of ourselves to affirm our worth. Working together, we will uncover the roots of this lack of self-worth, and help develop your ability to live in your worth. This then changes patterns in relationships and helps clarify where you may want boundaries.

Individuals struggling with codependency often struggle with setting effective boundaries. Learning interpersonal effectiveness skills can help facilitate healthy boundary setting. My goal is to help you find a balance with your boundaries with others to challenge the codependency that you struggle with.

Pre-Licensed Professional, Registered Psychotherapist (Q), DPsychotherapy, LPCC, CAS
We all have needs that must be met. But what happens when we are made to be responsible for other people's needs? Or when we feel out of control of whether our needs are met or not, and are totally dysregulated when others don't meet our needs? Codependency can be a scary roller coaster, but through intentional work we can begin to understand healthy ways to have our needs met and be in control of our boundaries and expectations of relationships.

I'll draw on relational, attachment-based, and psychodynamic approaches to help you understand and shift codependency patterns. 'Codependency' has become a stigmatized term, which can leave people feeling stuck or even ashamed. I think it's important to have a compassionate lens towards this relational dynamic and why it's developed. First, we'll work together to explore what codependency is like for you. What needs does it fulfill or not? What fears does it soothe or ignite? What longings are being expressed or repressed? We'll also explore how you can fulfill your needs for intimacy and safety in ways that also honour your boundaries. We may need to make space for inner conflicts between connection and individuality. How can those co-exist in your relationships? Alone, it may be hard to see beyond codependency—together, we can open up new possibilities for a more fulfilling relationship with yourself and others.

Sage Ariel Seguin
Registered Psychotherapist, QRP, MACP
Many of the adults I work with have spent years putting others' needs ahead of their own — at work, in family roles, or in close relationships — and arrive depleted and unsure who they are beneath the caretaking. For late-identified neurodivergent clients, codependency often overlaps with masking and over-functioning to keep relationships safe. Using Internal Family Systems and emotion-focused approaches, we explore the patterns and attachment wounds underneath people-pleasing, so reclaiming your own needs feels possible.

Alison Taylor
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, GIT.Dip, CAPT, CRPO
Codependency often shows up as people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, or losing yourself in relationships. Underneath these patterns is a deeply, universally human longing for connection, safety, and belonging. In our work together, we explore how your unique, brilliant, creative ways of relating developed, how they once kept you safe, and how these recurring motifs continue to shape your experience today. You’ll notice I’m hesitant to agree that you are a problem that needs to be "solved" or “fixed.” Time and again, I've found it’s just not true that there is anything wrong with you. Instead, we will bring awareness to what you’re experiencing in your body, your emotions, and your relationships in the present moment, especially when you try to express your needs or set limits. As we move with curiosity and creativity through the ways you’ve come to know yourself in the world, our discoveries can support you in reconnecting with your own sense of self, building clear, flexible boundaries, and learning how to stay connected to others without losing yourself.

Codependent patterns often stem from early experiences of attachment, caregiving roles, or trauma. I help clients understand their relationship dynamics, reconnect with their own needs, and establish healthy boundaries. Through a person-centred, emotionally attuned approach, we explore what it means to care for others without losing yourself.

Always putting others first, struggling to say no or feeling responsible for everyone’s emotions can leave you feeling drained and unseen. Therapy helps you understand where these patterns came from and how to build healthier boundaries while still being caring and connected. You are allowed to take up space in your own life.

Richmond Hill is a rapidly growing Toronto suburb in York Region with a majority Chinese population in many of its newer residential developments, alongside significant South Asian and Middle Eastern communities, creating strong demand for Mandarin-, Cantonese-, and Farsi-speaking therapists who can work within East Asian and Iranian cultural frameworks. The city's affluent suburban character and proximity to Toronto's tech and finance economy create a population with both the means and motivation to seek therapy, though help-seeking stigma in some East Asian and Middle Eastern communities remains a consideration. Mackenzie Health provides institutional mental health resources, with many residents also accessing the broader Greater Toronto Area therapy ecosystem. Richmond Hill's fast growth and relatively new development mean community ties can be shallow, and therapists frequently address social isolation and the challenge of belonging in a transient suburban environment.
