Codependency
Ashley Mason
Counselor/Therapist, CMHC, LMHC
Codependency often looks like giving endlessly to others while quietly ignoring your own needs. You may feel responsible for keeping the peace, fear disappointing people, or lose yourself in relationships. Many of my clients grew up with critical or emotionally unavailable parents, where approval had to be earned and boundaries weren’t respected. In therapy, I help you untangle these patterns, set limits without guilt, and reconnect with what you truly want. Over time, you’ll learn to care for others without abandoning yourself.

Debbie Cherry
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
When relationships become organized around keeping the peace, managing another person’s emotions, or losing yourself in the needs of others, it can be difficult to know what healthy connection should look like. I help clients in Tampa, St. Petersburg, and throughout Florida develop clearer boundaries while staying connected to the people they care about. The goal is not greater distance, but relationships that allow room for two whole people.

Co-Dependency: From Self-Sacrifice to Self-Sovereignty
Untangling Your Identity from the Needs of Others
Co-dependency is often the "noble" struggle. It is the exhaustion that comes from being the primary emotional caretaker, the peacekeeper, and the one who anticipates everyone else’s needs while ignoring your own. In my practice, we view co-dependent patterns as deeply ingrained attachment strategies—behaviors that were likely necessary for safety in the past but are now leading to burnout, resentment, and a loss of self.
Recognizing the Systemic Loop
Co-dependency doesn't happen in a vacuum; it is a relational "dance" that we explore through a systemic lens:
The Caretaker’s Burnout: Addressing the physical and emotional collapse that occurs when your "worth" is tied to your "usefulness."
Fear of Disconnection: Understanding the roots of the anxiety that arises when you try to set a boundary or say "no."
Emotional Enmeshment: Moving from a state where you "feel" the emotions of others more intensely than your own, toward a healthy, defined sense of self.
The Path to Relational Freedom
Using over 20 years of experience and specialized training in Attachment Theory and Systems Theory, I help you navigate the transition from enmeshment to autonomy:
Attachment Repair: We look at the "why" behind the "need to be needed," using EFT to help you develop a secure attachment to yourself first.
Internal Family Systems (IFS): We get curious about the "Protector" parts of you that believe you must be "perfect" or "helpful" to be loved.
Somatic Boundary Work: We learn to listen to the body’s signals of overwhelm and resentment, using them as a compass for where a boundary needs to be drawn.
Reclaiming Your Narrative
Whether you are navigating a relationship with a partner, a parent, or a child, the goal is not to stop caring—it is to care from a place of choice rather than a place of fear. Together, we work to build a life where you are no longer a "supporting character" in someone else’s story, but the conscious author of your own.

Candace Plattor
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Adler University
When we keep trying to put other people's needs ahead of our own, we lose ourselves in terms of our self-care and our self-respect. Often families do this with the addicts they love - and it creates a lose-lose situation for everyone concerned,

Kate Mageau (she/her)
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, ADHD-CCSP, NCC, CIMHP, C-DBT
Codependency is a key component of emotional abuse, toxic relationships, and domestic violence. It is often a precursor to all of these, so I help people to understand how codependent relationships form and how they last, how to notice signs of them turning into toxic relationships, and how to choose and keep healthy relationships. If you subscribe to my website, you can get a free handout on codependency! I have a book series, a workbook, and a course on this to help you learn and heal through the methods that work best for you. I currently only have these self-led supports for this.
