I often work with clients who have, or have had, challenges with co-dependency with both substances and relationships with others. Together, we will explore the roots of co-dependency challenges and engage in EMDR and/or IFS as indicated to best support these issues.
Human beings naturally attach to feel safe and loved in a way that is familiar. We often have attachment styles that are related to childhood family dynamics and unhealed wounds. We need to get to the root of how we love and how we want to be loved to heal.
With codependency, much of the focus is on how one learned how to be in relationships with others to understand early dynamics and better approach current relationships. As well, learning how to disentangle one's natural need for validation from another helps to empower and grow one's own sense of agency and power. Codependency has become a negative buzzword, however codependency when thoughtfully applied, managed and assessed can be constructive and vital to healthy relationships.
If you notice that you tend toward people-pleasing, supporting others before yourself, experience variable levels of self-esteem based on what is happening in your life and what people say to you, and setting boundaries feels really, really hard...then it is possible that you want some support around ways of showing up that are not in your best interests.
How do you recover from codependency?
You validate your feelings and say nice things to yourself. You don’t rely on other people to make you feel valid and worthy.
You notice what you do “right” rather than only the things you do “wrong” or imperfectly.
You set realistic expectations for yourself. ...
You celebrate your progress,even baby steps in the right direction. I’m

Having recovered from codependency myself I understand intimately the difficulties that come with issue. I have learned what drives this issue and how to correct it.
Codependency makes things in a relationship less stable because the person is too emotionally or mentally dependent on someone else. Psychodynamic therapy explores the underlying emotional and psychological factors contributing to codependent behavior and promotes separation, individuation, sense of identity and rediscovering who YOU truly are.

Life Coach, Certified Conscious Parent Coach CPMCP™, Clinical Certification for Stress, Anxiety and Self-Regulation
I offer compassionate guidance to clients struggling with patterns of enabling, people-pleasing, and self-neglect. Do you find yourself constantly prioritizing others' needs over your own? Are you prone to feeling responsible for the happiness and well-being of those around you, even at the expense of your own mental and emotional health? Do you struggle to set boundaries or assert your own desires, fearing rejection or abandonment if you do. These are just a few common symptoms of codependency, a relational pattern that can profoundly impact your sense of self-worth and fulfillment.
Drawing from my background in coaching, and somatic practices, and my own journey of being the 'good girl', I provide personalized support to help you break free from codependent cycles and reclaim your autonomy. Together, we can explore the root causes of your codependent behaviors, uncovering underlying traumas and belief systems that could be driving your patterns of self-sacrifice and emotional dependency.
Through a blend of spiritual, scientific, and practical methodologies, I empower my clients to cultivate healthier boundaries, prioritize self-care, which can lead to more authentic and fulfilling relationships. It's time to release the grip of codependency and follow a life of self-love, empowerment, and authentic connection.

Need help breaking free from unhealthy patterns of codependency? Let's work together to help you build confident, stronger, healthier relationships - and creating a life of balance, joy, and self-care.
Codependency can be like a heavy burden, pulling us down and clouding our vision. But, together, we can learn to navigate our relationships and find balance. As a therapist, my goal is to be a compassionate guide on your journey towards understanding and transcending patterns of codependency. Together, we will explore the underlying causes of your behaviors, and develop effective strategies for healthy communication and boundaries. We'll use mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques to help you understand the impact of your actions on others, and work towards advocating for your own needs in social situations. My guidance will be gentle and understanding, as we work towards a brighter future, with healthier and more fulfilling relationships. Let's start this journey together, and take the first step towards inner peace and self-discovery.
In my therapeutic practice, I address codependency as a complex interplay of emotional dynamics that often stems from deep-seated needs for approval, validation, and love. This pattern of behavior, while initially developed as a survival strategy in response to challenging relational environments, can lead to a loss of self-identity, boundary issues, and an overarching sense of dissatisfaction in one's relationships and personal life. Recognizing codependency as a sign of the soul's longing for genuine connection and self-realization, I offer a compassionate space for individuals to explore and understand these patterns, fostering a journey towards healing and autonomy.
The focus of our work together is on unraveling the layers of codependency, identifying its roots in past experiences, and understanding its impact on current relationships and self-perception. By cultivating self-awareness and self-compassion, clients are guided towards reclaiming their independence, establishing healthier boundaries, and developing a stronger sense of self-worth. This transformative process not only improves relationships with others but also deepens the connection to oneself, enabling a life lived with more authenticity and fulfillment.
Emphasizing the importance of personal growth and empowerment, my approach seeks to empower individuals to break free from the cycles of codependency, leading to a life marked by healthier relationships, emotional resilience, and a profound sense of inner freedom. Together, we work to create a future where one can engage in relationships not out of neediness or fear, but from a place of strength, wholeness, and genuine love.
Together with clients, we explore the stories they tell about their relationships and themselves, and through collaborative dialogue, clients identify and understand their own needs and values, fostering a stronger sense of self-worth. This process enables them to establish more fulfilling connections with those around them and with themselves.
