Christina Dee
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A. LMFT
Codependency often develops as a survival strategy but can limit authentic connection and self-fulfillment. I help clients recognize and shift unhealthy relationship patterns, establish boundaries, and reconnect with their own needs and identity—supporting healthy interdependence while honoring personal values and well-being.

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I work from an attachment perspective with codependency, recognizing codependency as a style of relating often learned early in life, sometimes from within in the womb. We'll explore stories of connection: such as when you have felt most seen and heard, loved and cherished, as well as when you have felt yourself chameleon-ing to keep someone present in your life. We'll really look at what the cues are for when you feel safe to stay in the integrity of your Core Self vs. when you find yourself sacrificing what you really want to meet the needs of others, weighing them as more valuable than yourself. I'll reflect back to you when I see you excelling in moments of prioritizing yourself without disrespecting others, a beautiful balance of self- and other-love that allows for each person to be their own individual within the relationship.

Kristin Robert
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Codependency often develops in relationships where safety, love, or belonging depended on anticipating another person’s needs, managing their emotions, or becoming indispensable. What once preserved connection can eventually lead to self-abandonment, resentment, overfunctioning, and difficulty recognizing where responsibility for another person ends. Treatment involves understanding the attachment wounds beneath the pattern, building tolerance for another person’s discomfort, and learning that care does not require control, rescue, or the loss of oneself.
