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.

Blair Thurston
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC, NCC
I specialize in helping people strengthen their sense of self-worth, develop their identity, learn to set boundaries, and increase their capacity to tolerate uncomfortable emotions. Through this process you will learn who you are (independent of your relationship) and learn how to be ok, even if your loved one isn't ok.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Codependency can feel like being trapped in over-responsibility for others while neglecting yourself. Using IFS, attachment-focused work. I help clients understand the parts of them driving these patterns and build healthier boundaries. Narrative and experiential therapies further support reclaiming self-worth and agency. I also offer diagnostic clarity when codependent patterns overlap with trauma, depression, or personality features.

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!

Dr. Stacie McPherson
Psychologist, M.A., Psy.D., Licensed Psychologist
Codependency shows up as difficulty setting boundaries, chronic people-pleasing, or a tendency to prioritize others' needs at the expense of your own. I help clients understand the roots of these patterns and develop a stronger sense of self within their relationships. Using relational therapy and somatic techniques, we'll work on building boundaries that feel sustainable and reconnecting with your own needs and values.

Jamie Andersen, M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Woodland Counseling
Codependency is an emotional condition that causes one to ignore their own needs while constantly meeting the needs of others. A sufferer may compromise their own wellbeing to help someone else. Codependents often enter relationships with individuals who are irresponsible, emotionally detached or excessively needy. Codependent relationships are imbalanced and a person with codependency often tries to save others from themselves. I will partner with you to create more balanced relationships and empower you to create the changes you desire.
