Charis Khoury
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
For those that were trained to self-abandon, returning "home" and learning to derive self worth from more reliable (internal) sources is one of the most rewarding achievements.

Shirley Johnson,
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CYT
I consider codependence is very simple terms as the behavior of taking care of someone at one's own expense. Many of us learn are value is in how muuch we will give to others which tends to mean abandoning ourselves. If you find yourself over-giving, caretaking, or losing yourself in relationships, we’ll gently uncover the roots of those patterns and build stronger boundaries, self-trust, and more balanced intimacy. The cure for codependency can be more self awareness and the ability to identify one's emotions and needs which I love to support folks on.

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Support for people who find themselves chronically over-functioning, caretaking, people-pleasing, shape-shifting, minimizing their own needs, anticipating the needs of others, or feeling responsible for the emotions, wellbeing, comfort, or stability of those around them. These patterns often develop as intelligent adaptations within family systems, trauma, cultural expectations, caregiving roles, marginalization, neurodivergence, or environments where safety, belonging, acceptance, or survival depended upon attunement to others.
This work explores the protective and prescribed roles these patterns may have played throughout your life and the ways they may have shaped identity, relationships, self-worth, boundaries, decision-making, and connection to your own needs, desires, emotions, and body. Particular attention is given to the influence of family dynamics, culture, gender socialization, attachment experiences, systemic oppression, internalized beliefs, and the messages you may have received about responsibility, worthiness, sacrifice, and care.
These patterns often live not only in thoughts and beliefs, but within the nervous system itself. They may show up as hypervigilance, chronic self-monitoring, difficulty asking for help, guilt when resting, discomfort receiving care, difficulty identifying needs, over-explaining, conflict avoidance, perfectionism, or a persistent sense that your value comes from what you do for others rather than who you are.
Through a trauma-informed, attachment-focused, and nervous-system-centered lens, space is created for greater self-trust, authenticity, reciprocity, discernment, and connection to your own inner experience. The goal is not to stop caring for others, but to cultivate a deeper relationship with yourself and with relationships where care can flow in multiple directions and where your needs, humanity, and wellbeing are nurtured by the same compassion and attention you so readily offer to everyone else.

Nes Pinar Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I help clients untangle patterns of codependency by slowing down, getting curious, and reconnecting with their own needs, boundaries, and inner wisdom. Together, we explore the stories and survival strategies that once kept you safe but now keep you stuck, making space for more choice, agency, and self‑trust. My approach is warm, relational, and steady—supporting you as you practice new ways of relating that feel authentic, mutual, and sustainable.

Brooke Taylor
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, AMFT
Codependency often shows up as putting others' needs before your own, struggling with boundaries, and losing yourself in relationships. If you find yourself constantly trying to please others, feeling responsible for their emotions, or staying in unhealthy dynamics, you may be experiencing codependency. In our work together, I’ll help you recognize patterns of codependency, explore their origins, and develop healthier ways to relate to others. My goal is to support you in reclaiming your sense of self, establishing strong boundaries, and building fulfilling, balanced relationships. You deserve to love and care for yourself as much as you do for others.

Roopa Cantu, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Many of us developed the tool of codependency to cope with relationships in difficult environments. We are now in safer environments and don't need to resort to old behaviors. My goal is to help empower codependent individuals to cultivate healthy behaviors and ultimately healthier relationships.

David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
Codependency is much more than spending a lot of time with someone else. It is being tangled up together like 2 sets of stringed lights and when one tries to pull away to do something independently, the other feels threatened, upset, abandoned, or a variety of other experiences. These are often rooted in a childhood where healthy boundaries were not modeled.
