Stacy Brumage
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCP, LCPC
I have been trained in trauma-related issues, codependency, pro-dependency and how past trauma can play a role in our current relationships. I can help decipher between reactions that may be responses to the trauma or betrayal that you may have experience from what may be otherwise labeled as co-dependency in other approaches.

The concept of Co-Dependency was developed as a way of explaining how family members of alcoholics, especially their spouses, became emotionally ill apparently as a result of living with an alcoholic for years.
"Co" is a prefix that means "like" or "with" - the family member becomes sick like and with "the dependent" (the person dependent on a chemical). There are several common problems that often go along with life with an alcoholic or drug abuser, including their unpredictable moods, selfish and irresponsible behavior, angry outbursts which may include verbal or physical abuse, broken promises and commitments, embarrassing public behavior, financial irresponsibility, legal problems, and inability to return love or affection. However, most chemically dependent people have periods when they function well, and this generates the hope that they will stay well, quit or control their chemical use, and become responsible and loving for good.
