Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), C.S.P.S.S
Life can feel overwhelming when you’re carrying the codependency on your own. My goal is to support you as I genuinely feel that everyone holds their own map to healing, however, many often need help navigating their path forward. Whether you’re also working on trauma recovery, healing from abuse, or working through the stages of grief, you don’t have to go through it alone. I am grateful to be that source of support for current and new clients. I help people create, enforce, and maintain boundaries that may have once felt impossible to implement, giving them space to feel safer, more empowered, and more connected to themselves and others. I work from an eclectic approach, believing there is no one-size-fits-all path to therapy. Together we can help you break free from limiting patterns and beliefs.

Hannah Bickle | Self, Relationships, Emotions
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Q)
When we struggle with codependent patterns, it can be easy to lose sight of ourselves in relationships. You may find yourself looking to other people to decide whether you are doing okay, whether you are enough, or whether you deserve to feel good about yourself. As a result, your mood and sense of self-worth can become closely tied to the emotions, opinions, and behaviours of those around you.
In therapy, we can explore these patterns with curiosity and compassion, helping you develop a stronger sense of self and healthier boundaries.

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.

Collaborative Care Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Codependency is a complex emotional and behavioral condition that often arises in relationships marked by an unhealthy level of emotional reliance or control. At Collaborative Care Therapy, we approach codependency with an integrative, relational, and trauma-informed perspective, understanding the deep-seated roots that often drive these patterns.
Our therapy sessions are designed to unpack the multifaceted layers of codependency. We delve into how past experiences, possibly stemming from childhood or previous relationships, have shaped current behaviors and emotional responses. Recognizing that codependency often originates from a place of trauma or unmet emotional needs, we provide a safe and empathetic space for exploration and healing.
In addressing codependency, we employ a blend of therapeutic approaches tailored to each individual’s needs. Cognitive-behavioral therapy helps in identifying and altering detrimental thought patterns and behaviors. At the same time, our relational approach fosters a deeper understanding of interpersonal dynamics. We also incorporate mindfulness techniques to enhance self-awareness and emotional regulation.
Our goal is not just to break the cycle of codependency but to empower individuals to build healthier, more autonomous relationships. This involves cultivating self-esteem, learning to set healthy boundaries, and developing effective communication skills. We guide you in recognizing your own needs and values, encouraging a journey towards self-discovery and personal growth.
Through virtual sessions, we offer the convenience and comfort of accessing therapy from your environment, ensuring continuous and personalized support. Begin your path to recovery from codependency with Collaborative Care Therapy, and discover the strength in building balanced, fulfilling relationships.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
I use Somatic Experiencing to help you tune into your own wants and needs so you can start learning to have a clearer sense of your boundaries, as well as the strength to set them.
A lot of relationships are labeled as 'codependent', but sometimes it can be more accurate to say that it's become easier for you to guess at what your partner wants than it is to know what you want.
Once you get more connected to what you want, it can become easier to have those conversations with your partner, and easier to stand strong in your needs.
