Lisa Willow
Counsellor/Therapist, BSW, MSW, ADHD Certified Clinical Services Provider
I use the work of Melody Beattie and Codependent No More to support clients with healing Codependency. Trying to fix and change another person, rescuing them, enabling, and saccrificing our own self by focussing on another person in order to feel "ok" are some of the behaviours that we use when we are involved in Codependent relationships. Through education, self awareness, proccessing, and change, we can become free from these kinds of relationships.

Rawda Tomoum
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC, CGT
For those who often find themselves overextending, taking responsibility for other people’s emotions, getting too impacted or developing hypersensitivity to someone else's emotions, or losing sight of their own needs in relationships. We can explore the patterns behind this, strengthen boundaries, and help you build relationships that feel more balanced, secure, and authentic.

Codependency is a sneaky thing. It feels normal, it feels like caring for others; it feels like loving someone really hard but the resentment, fatigue, and continual loop of closeness, and chaos is a block you can get past. I work to help you slow down and allow for other patterns to show up where you can look back say "I'm doing relationships differently now!".

Bill Arbuckle
Therapist, MCP, RCC
Codependency often develops as a survival strategy, a way of staying safe, keeping the peace, or holding everything together when things were unstable. The problem is it tends to come at the cost of yourself. I work with people to recognise the patterns, understand where they came from, and slowly build relationships, including the one with yourself, that don't require you to disappear to maintain them.

Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor, Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCC
If you often prioritize others at the expense of yourself, struggle with boundaries, or feel responsible for other people's emotions, we can explore the patterns underneath. Drawing from attachment and relational approaches, I can help you strengthen your sense of self, build healthier boundaries, and create more balanced relationships.

Carol D.B. Whaley Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
We are all a little on the Codependent scale, because we are all human. It is a part of the human experience to sometimes lose ourselves in another. We want the process of our individuation to be fluid, not stagnant, so we don't get stuck in a state where we are lost in another. In therapy, with a great deal of self-compassion, I work on helping the client bring awareness to the part of them that tends to lose themselves in relationships, giving up their needs to please others, struggling with who they are separate from another. The therapeutic process involves going to the root of what is causing the codependence, then through a combination of cognitive awareness and body work the client is able to slowly come home to themselves.

Ajay Sahota
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC (Registered Clinical Counsellor)
Growing up in a home with an Alcoholic parent can be an unstable experience. You never know what to expect. If you have experienced chaos in your childhood, dealt with unpredictable mental state of your parent, and witnessed and responded to ongoing unsafe situations, then this will be familiar to you. In an unpredictable home, it can be difficult to trust yourself and your experiences. To survive, and avoid, sometimes you need to bottle up your feelings so much that you forget how to experience emotions. When your needs are ignored, seeking approval from others can result in losing your own identity. Feeling responsible for others can outweigh your own needs and wellbeing.
I have been providing counselling services in the community since 2014. I have supported many people who have a loved one struggling with addiction. I am excited to support you as you heal from some or all of the above experiences. Counselling can also help you set healthier boundaries in relationships and start putting your own needs and safety first.
Many adult children of alcoholics (ACOA):
Carry shame.
Remember how they hid their parent’s addiction.
Experienced an alcoholic parent’s behaviours and reactions.
Have experienced domestic abuse, violence, neglect, and unpredictable behaviours.
Experience worry and anxiety.
Avoid family/events.
Have internalized negative beliefs.
Have never experienced being fully cared for.
Feel a sense worthlessness and resentment.
Take care of an alcoholic parent, putting their own needs last.

Codependency can come from non-secure attachment, a conflicted environment and from trauma when we are young. The central nervous system/brain can be re-set/balanced such that secure attachment is achieved and the emotional and chemical charges are deleted so healthy relationships are experienced.

Kylie Feller
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MA, CCC
You don’t have to lose yourself to be loved.
If you find yourself overgiving in relationships, struggling to set boundaries, or feeling anxious when you're not needed, you may be dealing with codependent patterns. These often come from early wounds and parts of us that equate love with self-sacrifice or people-pleasing. As someone who specializes in dating and relationships—and is currently writing a book on dating through the lens of Internal Family Systems (IFS)—I help you identify the parts of you that fear being alone, not enough, or too much. Together, we’ll untangle old patterns, heal the underlying wounds, and reconnect you with your True Self—so you can build relationships from a place of wholeness rather than need.
