Laird Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
All relationships experience challenging times where self-doubt can creep in, but codependent relationships possess specific, persistent traits that make them particularly tough to navigate. In a codependent dynamic, you might find it difficult to refuse requests, establish healthy boundaries, and prioritize your own well-being. Perhaps you consistently feel drained but struggle to rest. You might empathize deeply with others, leading you to take on their responsibilities or overextend yourself. The thought that tasks won't be completed or done correctly unless you handle them yourself might be a frequent worry. Ultimately, codependency can leave you with feelings of anger, frustration, and resentment.
From the other perspective in a codependent relationship, you might be perplexed by your partner's responses. Do you often feel criticized or controlled? The reality in codependent relationships is that neither individual feels content. One partner feels overwhelmed by excessive responsibility, while the other struggles to comprehend the complaints. This can create a destructive cycle where feelings of being misunderstood and unappreciated prevail for both individuals.
Seeking counselling focused on codependency can provide valuable insights into these patterns and help you address the core issues. We encourage you to reach out to us to schedule a consultation and explore how we can help.

Rikki-Lee Epp
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, RP, BA, Dipl. Psych.
I support clients struggling with codependency by exploring how early relational patterns may have shaped current difficulties with boundaries, self-worth, and emotional dependence. Through a compassionate, psychodynamic approach, we uncover the unconscious roots of these patterns, helping clients develop more authentic, balanced, and fulfilling relationships—with others and with themselves.

KDW Counselling & Consulting
Registered Psychotherapist, RP or RSW
Codependency often shows up as putting other people’s needs ahead of your own, feeling responsible for their emotions, or struggling to set boundaries. Over time, this can leave you feeling drained, unseen, or unsure of who you are outside of your relationships. In therapy, we explore where these patterns come from and how they play out in your life today. The work often includes building self-worth, learning to set healthy limits, and creating space for relationships that feel more balanced and fulfilling. Healing from codependency doesn’t mean caring less—it means caring in a way that includes yourself, too.

Clare Pentelow
Therapist, MSW, RSW
Co-dependency often feels like an internal compass that is permanently pointed toward everyone else’s needs, leaving your own sense of self lost in the process. You might find yourself over-functioning in relationships, struggling to set boundaries, or feeling responsible for others' emotions. In our sessions, we move beyond simple "people-pleasing" labels to unpack the profound impact these patterns have had on your life and your identity.
Using an IFS and relational approach, we’ll get to know the parts of you that feel it’s "unsafe" to have needs of your own. By weaving in psychodynamic insights and self-compassion, we explore the roots of these dynamics—often tracing them back to early experiences where staying attuned to others was a necessary form of care or protection. My goal is to help you shift from external validation to internal security, fostering a relationship with yourself that is rooted in choice, boundaries, and genuine self-worth.

Tej Neringer, Pivotal Counseling
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Codependency is a theory that attempts to explain imbalanced relationships where one person enables another person's self-destructive behavior. Working with codependency requires the codependent to explore and understand what they gain from being in codependent relationships. We work towards improved self-esteem and identity, so that you are no longer trying to have these needs met through unhealthy relationships.

Pursue You Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., R.P
Codependency can make it difficult to set boundaries, prioritize your needs, and feel secure in relationships. At Pursue You Psychotherapy, we help individuals recognize unhealthy patterns, develop self-worth, and build relationships based on mutual respect, independence, and emotional balance.
We provide treatment that targets:
-People-Pleasing & Fear of Disapproval – Difficulty saying no, prioritizing others at your own expense, or seeking external validation.
-Lack of Boundaries – Struggling to express needs, feeling responsible for others' emotions, or fearing conflict.
-Low Self-Worth – Tying your identity to how much you give or feeling unworthy of love without “earning” it.
-Anxiety in Relationships – Constant worry about abandonment, overanalyzing interactions, or difficulty trusting others.
-Overfunctioning in Relationships – Feeling the need to fix, rescue, or control others to maintain connection.
-Difficulty Being Alone – Feeling uncomfortable with independence or defining happiness through relationships.
Our approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Inner Child Work, Self-Compassion & Boundary Coaching, and Mindfulness Techniques to help you unlearn codependent patterns, build self-confidence, and create fulfilling, balanced relationships. You deserve relationships that are built on mutual care, not self-sacrifice. Whether you’re working on reclaiming your independence or learning to set healthy boundaries, we’re here to help you create the fulfilling life you deserve.
