Marcelle Little
Marriage and Family Therapist, MPH, MA
Putting the emotional and physical needs of another before yourself, or at the cost of your own wellbeing and sanity is an important pattern to become aware of. It takes time to cultivate insight into core beliefs of self and how enabling behaviors can lead to resentment and/or more suffering. I will guide you through a process to identify your 'no's' and 'yes's' as well as your boundaries and needs.

Codependency
Susana Scotti, Journey Psychotherapy
Psychologist, PhD
Struggling with codependency can leave you feeling emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns, and unsure of your own needs or boundaries. You may find yourself prioritizing others at the expense of your well-being, feeling responsible for fixing or rescuing those around you, or experiencing guilt when you try to put yourself first. As a licensed psychologist with expertise in trauma, addiction, and mood disorders, I understand how codependent patterns often develop as a way to cope with past experiences and relational wounds. In therapy, we work together to uncover these underlying dynamics, build self-awareness, and strengthen your sense of identity and self-worth.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I help clients develop healthier boundaries, improve communication, and learn how to engage in relationships from a place of balance rather than obligation or fear. Whether codependency is connected to past trauma, substance use, or ongoing anxiety or depression, our work will focus on helping you create more fulfilling, stable, and authentic connections, starting with the relationship you have with yourself.

Timothy Weymann
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (L.C.S.W.)
I help clients untangle patterns of codependency and build healthier, more balanced relationships. Codependency often develops from a deep desire to care for others, but over time it can lead to over-functioning, people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, and losing touch with your own needs and identity. In our work together, we explore the roots of these patterns with curiosity and compassion—often uncovering early relational experiences that shaped them. Using evidence-based approaches, we strengthen boundary-setting skills, build self-worth independent of others’ approval, and develop greater emotional awareness and autonomy. We also work on tolerating discomfort that can arise when you begin to shift long-standing dynamics. My approach is warm, collaborative, and empowering. The goal isn’t to stop caring about others—it’s to help you care for yourself just as deeply, creating relationships that feel mutual, respectful, and sustainable.

Codependency
California Center for Change
Psychologist, PhD
When someone you love is struggling with addiction, it is easy to lose yourself in the effort to help them. You may find yourself managing their crises, making excuses for their behavior, or putting your own needs so far aside that you can no longer remember what they were. Codependency is not a character flaw. It is a learned pattern and it can change. We work with partners, parents, and family members to help them set healthier boundaries, rebuild their own sense of self, and find more effective ways to support their loved one without sacrificing their own wellbeing in the process.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
I use Somatic Experiencing to help you tune into your own wants and needs so you can start learning to have a clearer sense of your boundaries, as well as the strength to set them.
A lot of relationships are labeled as 'codependent', but sometimes it can be more accurate to say that it's become easier for you to guess at what your partner wants than it is to know what you want.
Once you get more connected to what you want, it can become easier to have those conversations with your partner, and easier to stand strong in your needs.

Codependency
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.
