Codependency
Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
When your internal compass becomes entirely fixed on monitoring the emotional states and safety of others, navigating codependency requires a gentle, slow return to your own body. I provide an affirming, non-judgmental online space in Vancouver to help you explore the wise relational survival strategies that originally led you to deprioritize yourself. Together, we will slow down and listen to your somatic cues, allowing you to reclaim your right to take up space and express your true, authentic self.

Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
Codependency often develops as a survival strategy rooted in early relational experiences. Together, we explore patterns of over giving, people pleasing, and losing yourself in relationships through a trauma informed and nervous system aware lens. Using somatic work, parts work, and inner child healing, and compassion-focused approaches, we gently address the deeper roots beneath these patterns. The goal is to help you build self trust, self-confidence, healthy boundaries, and more.

Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
I specialize in codependency in women. Codependency starts in childhood when you begin people pleasing to feel loved and accepted. You lose a sense of who you are, lack boundaries, and have a hard time being assertive. You may have anxiety/depression, low self worth and reach outside of yourself to fill that emptiness inside. I can help you manage your emotions instead of feeling overwhelmed by them and feel fulfilled and confident. You may even be struggling with a break up, I can help you feel more whole again message me for a free 15 minute phone consultation.

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.

Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Codependency often begins as a necessary survival strategy in early childhood—a way of staying safe by becoming highly attuned to the needs of others. With over 15 years of experience helping individuals navigate complex relationship patterns, I help you understand the 'parts' of yourself that feel responsible for everyone else's emotions.
Together, we move beyond just identifying these habits to healing the underlying wounds that make setting boundaries feel dangerous. By combining my extensive clinical background with a compassionate, relational lens, I help you shift from people-pleasing toward a grounded sense of self-worth and authentic connection with others.

Barchi Fojkar
Pre-Licensed Professional, Clinical Hypnotherapist
I practice psychology with a holistic perspective, focusing on the whole person, heart, mind, body, and soul, rather than just the symptoms. I draw from attachment theory and connect people with their internal resources to change their relationship with codependency.

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.

Shelley Klammer
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
If you are a heart-centred, empathic woman, you might have challenges setting healthy boundaries with people and could be stuck in fawning, pleasing, and appeasing patterns to feel safe and connected. I can support you in defining your values and setting either flexible or non-negotiable boundaries, depending on the circumstances. I can help you move through self-doubt and into your authentic self-expression. The therapy that I offer is in-depth and often involves going back to the inner child, where your inner defense patterns and relationship patterns began, to initiate deep emotional healing and safety.

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.

Candace Plattor
Drug and Alcohol Counsellor, M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Adler University
When we keep trying to put other people's needs ahead of our own, we lose ourselves in terms of our self-care and our self-respect. Often families do this with the addicts they love - and it creates a lose-lose situation for everyone concerned,

Vancouver's extreme housing affordability crisis has become a defining mental health issue, with therapists frequently addressing financial stress, housing precarity, and the grief of displacement from a city many can no longer afford to stay in. The city's large East Asian community — particularly its Chinese, Korean, Filipino, and South Asian populations — drives demand for culturally fluent therapists who can navigate family dynamics, immigration stress, and the intersection of cultural expectations with individual wellbeing. BC Mental Health & Substance Use Services provides institutional support, while Vancouver's large private therapy community is concentrated in Kitsilano, Mount Pleasant, Commercial Drive, and the West End. BC's expanded telehealth access makes it easier to connect with therapists across the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley.
