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.

Registered Psychotherapist, BA, MA, Post MA Dip, BACP Accred
Co-dependency is when we lose sight of ourselves and get lost in someone else; when we have never learned how to notice and assert what we ourselves need in a particular relationship. Do you put the other first and increasingly hear a trapped voice in you whispering ´´What about me?´´ Let´s coax that part of you out, find out what you need to own as yours, what independence really can look like when it is allowed in.

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.

James Darby
Registered Psychotherapist, Postgraduate Diploma Core Process Psychotherapy, DCHyp, ABSCH, MBA
Co-dependency often involves deeply ingrained patterns of self-sacrifice, emotional dependency, and a lack of personal boundaries, rooted in unresolved emotional wounds from childhood development and relational dynamics. I can help individuals to explore and understand these patterns by helping people to understand how unmet needs from the past can be unconsciously reenacted in their current adult relationships. The intention being that with such understanding the clients I work with can begin to move towards healthier, more boundaried, collaborative and interdependent relationships with their friends and loved ones.
