I see Codependency and Enmeshment through an Attachment lens. If you are trying to gain distance from a loved one who tries to be codependent/enmeshed, understanding your attachment needs and theirs is crucial to healing and determining next steps of loving the person while also generating boundaries for a new level of health in the relationship.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with young adults and adults who have learned to orient themselves around other people’s needs, emotions, or expectations at the expense of their own. This can look like being the reliable one, the steady one, the person others turn to, while privately feeling depleted, unseen, or unsure where your own preferences begin. Many people I see have spent years managing relationships, smoothing conflict, or carrying more than their share because it felt safer than disappointing someone or risking disconnection.
Codependent patterns often develop in situations where you had to stay attuned to others to keep the peace, where your worth was tied to being helpful or accommodating, or where expressing your own needs led to tension, withdrawal, or criticism. Over time, this can make it hard to trust your internal signals, set boundaries without guilt, or believe that your needs matter as much as anyone else’s.
In our work together, we look at how these patterns formed, what they have protected you from, and how they show up in your relationships today. We make space for the part of you that learned to stay small, agreeable, or over responsible in order to feel safe, and for the part of you that is tired of doing so much emotional labor. From there, we explore what it means to move through relationships with more clarity, self‑respect, and choice, without abandoning the parts of you that have worked so hard to keep things stable. Supporting people who have organized themselves around others for a long time is central to my practice, and I have deep respect for how much you have carried.

Dr. Maria Canyon
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Patterns of codependency develop for complex reasons (e.g. personality traits, childhood environments) and require a thorough multimodal approach to treatment. Codependency develops as a unconscious and valid protective response to relational dynamics. Overtime you may have started to recognize the harmful effects this tendency, that likely protected you during childhood, is having on you and your current relationships. Together we can explore the unconscious patterning that has led to this and work to implement healthy boundaries and behaviors. While doing this, we will hold space for the inevitable emotions that arise when setting new patterns into place. Overtime, my hope is that you will be able to integrate your compassion for others into an empowered self, meeting your own needs as well as others.

Jen Battista
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC, NCC
Codependency usually back into our attachment style. I use Attachment Theory to help clients learn and identify their attachment style, process relationships either past and/or current, and heal the wounds related to where the attachment started. Look at trauma, beliefs, sense of self, and more.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
How did I get here? In some ways, it feels like I just woke up one day to find out I was taking care of everyone around me; it also feels true that I've always been taking care of others and that I've always needed others to take care of me.
Welcome, I have training in both trauma and relationships so I love to help folks unravel the puzzle of codependency versus interdependency. It's not unhealthy to need people, that's part of being a person! But where does it go too far? How can you tell, how can you set boundaries to make sure? I'm happy to work with you to help you build these skills and more as we're working on examining this pattern in your life!

Christina Song
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
I approach codependency not as a flaw or diagnosis, but as a set of learned relational strategies shaped by attachment, trauma, and survival. Many people who identify with codependent patterns are deeply attuned, responsible, and caring—often at the expense of their own needs. In therapy, we gently explore how these patterns developed, what they have protected, and how they may no longer be serving you.
Our work focuses on building awareness, strengthening boundaries, and increasing self-trust while honoring your desire for connection. Through a trauma-informed and relational approach, we work to untangle obligation from care, guilt from responsibility, and self-worth from over-functioning. Therapy becomes a space to practice new ways of relating—ones that allow for closeness without self-abandonment and support relationships that feel mutual, grounded, and sustainable.
