Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
The way that I often work with clients in relation to codependency is by integrating a humanistic approach with the use of somatic approaches which focus on the body's role in storing and expressing trauma. These techniques help clients release trapped energy and build a sense of safety within their own bodies. Methods include:
- Body awareness exercises that help clients tune into physical sensations and identify areas of tension or discomfort.
- Breathwork and grounding techniques to regulate the nervous system and promote relaxation.
I work with codependent clients to help you recognise and change unhealthy relational patterns by:
- Exploring the origins of your codependent behaviours and the unmet needs driving them. We may use parts work if this feels helpful to you.
- Teaching assertiveness and communication skills to enable clients to express your needs and set healthy boundaries.
- Supporting clients in gradually shifting your focus from external validation to internal self-worth.
With integrating a Trauma-Informed Practice:
A trauma-informed approach ensures that therapy is sensitive to the impacts of trauma and prioritises the client's safety and empowerment. Key principles include:
- Recognizing the widespread impact of trauma and understanding its signs and symptoms.
- Avoiding re-traumatisation by being mindful of triggers and respecting the client's pace.
- Collaborating with clients to set goals and involve you actively in your healing process.
Working with codependent clients through an integrative humanistic and somatic trauma-informed approach offers a compassionate and effective pathway to healing. By addressing the deep-seated roots of codependency in trauma, therapists can help clients build healthier relationships, develop a stronger sense of self, and ultimately lead more fulfilling lives.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
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.

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.

Southampton's identity as a major port city — historically the departure point for the Titanic and still a global cruise and cargo hub — shapes a culture tied to maritime industry and international movement, with therapists frequently encountering the particular stresses of seafarer families, shift work, and the psychological demands of port logistics careers. The city has two major universities — the University of Southampton and Solent University — creating significant student mental health demand alongside a substantial research and professional community. Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community serving the Shirley, Portswood, and Bitterne areas. Southampton's significant communities from South Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Eastern Europe drive growing demand for culturally competent and multilingual practitioners.
