Codependency
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.

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.

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.

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,

Sarah Bickle
Registered Psychotherapist, MPsy., R.P.
Codependency can trap you in cycles of unhealthy relationships, where you may prioritize others' needs over your own and struggle to set boundaries. In therapy, we’ll work to identify patterns of codependency, explore their roots, and develop healthier relational dynamics. I’ll guide you in building stronger self-esteem and teaching you how to balance care for yourself with care for others. With compassionate support, you can break free from these patterns and cultivate more authentic, fulfilling connections.

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.

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.

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.

Natalie V. Bochenska
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, RCAT, Certified Somatic Practitioner
Do you find yourself putting others' needs before your own, struggling to set boundaries, or feeling responsible for other people's emotions? I help clients explore the attachment patterns and past experiences that contribute to people-pleasing, self-abandonment, and difficulties in relationships. Our work focuses on reconnecting with your needs, developing healthy boundaries, and building relationships where you can remain true to yourself.

Karen Baker
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CTP Dipl
Codependent and people-pleasing patterns often begin as survival strategies — ways of staying safe or needed within a family system that didn't leave room for your own needs or boundaries. My work helps clients understand these patterns, learn to recognize and hold boundaries without guilt, and build relationships rooted in mutual care rather than self-sacrifice.
