Dr. Natassia Johnson

Relationships matter, but overly relying on relationships to make you feel whole and complete is an issue. It's important to balance the worth you generate from self and the worth you generate from loved ones around you.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
The concept of Co-Dependency was developed as a way of explaining how family members of alcoholics, especially their spouses, became emotionally ill apparently as a result of living with an alcoholic for years.
"Co" is a prefix that means "like" or "with" - the family member becomes sick like and with "the dependent" (the person dependent on a chemical). There are several common problems that often go along with life with an alcoholic or drug abuser, including their unpredictable moods, selfish and irresponsible behavior, angry outbursts which may include verbal or physical abuse, broken promises and commitments, embarrassing public behavior, financial irresponsibility, legal problems, and inability to return love or affection. However, most chemically dependent people have periods when they function well, and this generates the hope that they will stay well, quit or control their chemical use, and become responsible and loving for good.

Tammy Neil
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ph.D.
If you continuously sacrifice your own needs for the needs of others, or you feel you are in a relationship that is unbalanced and unhealthy, you may be codependent. Typically codependency is rooted in childhood from being ignored, unloved or neglected in some way. If you feel that you fit into this category, counseling can help your self esteem and self confidence so you can have a healthy relationship.
