Codependency
Ayden Ferstenberg
Psychologist, PsyD
Do you find yourself anticipating other people's needs, taking responsibility for their feelings, or struggling to say no, even when you feel resentful or depleted? You may have learned that being helpful, accommodating, or indispensable is how you maintain connection, avoid conflict, or feel valued. I help clients explore the patterns that make it difficult to prioritize themselves without guilt, fear of rejection, or a sense of selfishness. Our work focuses on building relationships in which you can care deeply for others without losing touch with your own needs, boundaries, and sense of self.

Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You might be the one everyone leans on—always available, endlessly supportive, and quick to smooth things over. But underneath that strength, there’s a quiet exhaustion. Maybe you’ve spent so long tending to others that you’ve lost touch with your own voice. You may struggle to set boundaries, prioritize your own needs, or feel okay when someone else is upset. Maybe you define your worth through how much you give or help, but deep down, you’re craving space to just be… without performing, fixing, or proving.
At The Momentum Practice, I help clients untangle patterns of codependency that often start early—growing up in families where your worth was tied to being helpful, agreeable, or emotionally attuned to others. These patterns can show up in adult life in all kinds of relationships: romantic partnerships, friendships, caregiving roles, family systems, and even the workplace, where over-functioning often gets mistaken for excellence. You might find yourself constantly people-pleasing, second-guessing your instincts, or feeling panicked at the thought of being left behind. They can be especially layered for LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent folks who’ve had to mask parts of themselves to stay safe, loved, or accepted.
We’ll explore how these ways of relating helped you survive—and how they might be keeping you stuck now. Together, we’ll work on building boundaries that feel empowering (not selfish), tuning into your own needs and desires, and letting go of the belief that your value comes from how much you give. We’ll also look at how systemic pressures may have reinforced these patterns over time. Our work might include unlearning perfectionism, quieting the inner critic, and cultivating self-trust that isn’t tied to how much you do for others.
With over 15 years of experience, I offer a compassionate space to reconnect with your own voice and needs. You don’t have to keep disappearing in your relationships. Whether we’re working one-on-one or navigating these dynamics in couples therapy, you’ll have a space to explore what healthier, more mutual connection can look like. If you're ready to show up more fully for yourself and build connections that don’t come at the cost of your own well-being, I’d be honored to journey alongside you.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I work with adults who struggle with patterns often described as codependence, including over-responsibility for others, people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, and a sense of self that becomes organised around relationships. These patterns are usually adaptive responses developed over time, rather than personal failings.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to understand how these relational strategies developed and what they may be protecting. Sessions focus on increasing clarity about needs, limits, and patterns of attachment, allowing different ways of relating to emerge. We may work through conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.

Codependency
Centers for Counseling and Wellness, Int'l
Psychologist, PhD
Codependency has a way of sneaking up on you. One day you realize you have been so focused on everyone else's needs, everyone else's feelings, everyone else's happiness, that you have completely lost track of your own. You pour from an empty cup and call it love. You say yes when everything in you is screaming no. You measure your worth by how much you can give, and when it is never enough, you give more.
If any of that sounds familiar, you are not alone. And there is nothing wrong with you. Codependency is often a survival strategy that made perfect sense at some point in your life. It just stopped serving you.
At CCW International, we help you gently untangle the patterns that have kept you stuck in cycles of over-giving, people-pleasing, and losing yourself in your relationships. Through compassionate, evidence-based therapy, we help you reconnect with your own needs, rebuild your sense of self, and learn what it feels like to show up for others without abandoning yourself in the process.
You are allowed to be a priority in your own life. We will help you believe that.
