Codependency in a Relationship (often mistyped as "codepemency nlurb") is a dynamic in which one person relies excessively on another for approval, identity, and self-worth—often prioritising their partner's needs, emotions, and problems over their own to a harmful degree.
Key Characteristics
Enmeshment & Poor Boundaries: Difficulty recognising where your emotions end and your partner's begin, leading to an inability to say "no."
Caretaking & Control: A compulsive need to fix, rescue, or control the partner's behaviour, often under the guise of helping.
Low Self-Esteem & Fear of Abandonment: Seeking constant validation from the partner while harbouring a deep fear of rejection or being left alone.
Self-Neglect: Suppressing personal desires, goals, and values to maintain peace or keep the relationship intact.
Breaking the Cycle
Develop Self-Awareness: Identify times when you sacrifice your well-being to manage your partner's state or behaviour.
Establish Clear Boundaries: Practice saying "no" to unreasonable demands and communicate personal limits clearly.
Reclaim Autonomy: Make time for individual hobbies, friendships, and goals outside the relationship.

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.

Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
Codependency can leave you feeling overly responsible for other people, disconnected from your own needs, and caught in patterns of over-giving, rescuing, people-pleasing, or losing yourself in relationships. Often, these patterns develop for understandable reasons and can stem from attachment wounds, fear of abandonment, or low self-worth. My approach focuses on understanding the deeper patterns underneath these dynamics so that you can develop healthier boundaries, stronger self-trust, and relationships that feel more mutual and secure.

I support people in exploring how these patterns developed and how they affect emotional wellbeing and boundaries.
