Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LAMFT
Codependency is a "buzz word" in therapy, as well as in mainstream society. Unfortunately, codependency is often misconstrued as a character flaw, when in reality, it's an adaptive pattern of interaction that has developed as a brilliant survival strategy -- it's just not working for the context of the relationship anymore. Codependency results from a need to keep oneself safe from rejection or abandonment, so a sense of prediction or anticipation is developed with regards to the thoughts, feelings, and opinions of other people. If you feel like you or your partner are codependent, let's take a look at where this adaptation comes from and what it's seemingly helping you with. Couple therapy can help you to form an awareness around your fears and help you to be healthy, autonomous people while managing them well.

Abby Cobey
Psychologist, PsyD
I get asked a lot about codependency. It's a tricky concept and behavior pattern that is so easy to fall into particularly if we have had substance abuse or really any type of abuse in our relationship history. It's about seeking to control without knowing that's what we're doing. We will work on making choices that are consistent with your values so that you end up in meaningful relationships in which you be around the people in your life without compromising yourself.

Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
My approach teaches you to depend on yourself and to be self-directed. You can learn to help yourself if you improve your discomfort tolerance for doing things for yourself, taking calculated risks, and accept yourself even when you fail.
