Dr Malgorzata Milewicz
Registered Psychotherapist, HCPC Registered; UKCP Registered
You may find that your sense of security depends heavily on what is happening in your relationship—how available the other person feels, whether something seems different, or whether you feel wanted and reassured. You may become preoccupied with the relationship or lose sight of your own needs within it. I work relationally to understand these patterns and help you develop greater security without giving up the closeness you want.

Marianna Trezza -The Growing mindset
Counsellor/Therapist, MA (Hons), Adv Dip. Counsel. & Psychoth.,Dip. Hypnoth., X-Cultural Adaptation Coun. Reg. BACP 572613
Many women who struggle with codependent patterns are not weak or “too needy”. Often, they became highly skilled at adapting to others very early in life.
Learning to monitor moods.
Anticipate needs.
Avoid conflict.
Keep relationships emotionally stable.
For many Italian women living abroad, these patterns can become even more complex.
Living between cultures, languages and expectations often requires continuous adaptation. Over time, some women become so focused on reading others and maintaining belonging that they slowly lose connection with their own rhythm, needs and emotional boundaries.
Many women I work with appear highly capable and caring on the outside, while internally feeling emotionally exhausted, over-responsible or unable to fully relax in relationships.
My work explores the deeper nervous system patterns underneath people pleasing, emotional over-functioning and chronic self-abandonment.
I offer a warm, reflective and holistic space where women can begin reconnecting with their own voice, emotional safety and sense of self without constantly needing to adapt in order to feel loved, accepted or enough.
My approach integrates psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, embodiment, nervous-system-informed approaches, nature-based practices and reflective dialogue.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I work with adults who struggle with patterns often described as codependence, including over-responsibility for others, people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, and a sense of self that becomes organised around relationships. These patterns are usually adaptive responses developed over time, rather than personal failings.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to understand how these relational strategies developed and what they may be protecting. Sessions focus on increasing clarity about needs, limits, and patterns of attachment, allowing different ways of relating to emerge. We may work through conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.

Birgit Schreiber Dr
Psychologist, PhD and MA in Psychology
This is a very interesting area as many of us depend on others, but when it becomes detrimental and we find ourselves in a relationship that is causing us much harm or worry, then it is useful to examine why we struggle to change something.

Lulu AlRashdi
Life Coach
Codependency is often the attempt to meet, through adult relationships, emotional needs that were not fully met in childhood. The goal is not to become independent from everyone, but to develop relationships based on mutual respect, healthy boundaries, and genuine connection rather than unmet childhood needs.

Karine Flynn
Psychologist, MSc, GMBPS
Codependency is fundamentally a nervous system pattern - a deep-rooted orientation toward others' emotional states that developed as a survival strategy and never got updated. Understanding this intellectually rarely shifts it. The work happens at the level of the body: learning to locate your own internal experience, to stay with it under relational pressure, and to build the felt sense of self that makes genuine boundaries possible.

Donna Collins
Registered Psychotherapist, BSc (hons), PGDip, SupervisionDip
Codependency is something that many people struggle with in relationships. This can promote feelings of helplessness and fear. It is possible to move from this experience to one of inner strength and independence within a relationship and I am able to support you in your journey towards this.

Chelmsford is the county town and cathedral city of Essex, a significant commuter hub for London served by fast rail links into Liverpool Street, and home to Anglia Ruskin University's Chelmsford campus, which brings a student population and contributes trained health professionals to the local workforce. NHS mental health services are provided through Essex Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust, and a private therapy sector serves both the professional commuter population and permanent residents. The town's rapid growth and commuter character create specific mental health dynamics around work-life balance, long daily commutes, and the challenge of building local community in a place where many residents' professional and social lives are oriented toward the capital. Common therapy concerns include commuter stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, and the identity challenges of a cathedral city still defining itself beyond its role as a London satellite.
