Codependency
Amber McKinney-Morgan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
If you find yourself over-giving, over-functioning, or losing yourself in relationships, you’re not alone. Codependency often develops as an adaptive way to stay connected and safe. Together, we explore these patterns with compassion, helping you reconnect with your own needs, set boundaries, and build relationships that feel mutual, grounded, and authentic.

Codependency
Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Codependency often reflects early relational patterns in which emotional needs, boundaries, and self-worth became entangled with the needs of others. My work integrates psychoanalytic exploration and somatic awareness to understand how these patterns continue to shape adult relationships. Together, we work toward greater emotional autonomy, clarity, and the capacity to remain connected to oneself while being close to others.

Jennifer Francke Psychotherapy, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LIMHP, LPC, LADC, LMHC
Therapy for codependency focuses on helping individuals break free from unhealthy patterns of enabling behavior and develop a healthier sense of self. Interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) help identify and change negative thought patterns, while psychoeducation offers insights into the dynamics of codependency. We work on building assertiveness skills, setting healthy boundaries, and increasing self-awareness of enabling behaviors that may be perpetuating the cycle. Therapy also explores underlying fears of abandonment, guilt, and shame, while emphasizing the importance of self-care and self-compassion. The goals of therapy are to empower you to create balanced, fulfilling relationships, increase emotional independence, and foster a stronger sense of self-worth. With support, therapy can help you cultivate healthier relationship patterns and develop a more fulfilling, self-respecting life.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
I use Somatic Experiencing to help you tune into your own wants and needs so you can start learning to have a clearer sense of your boundaries, as well as the strength to set them.
A lot of relationships are labeled as 'codependent', but sometimes it can be more accurate to say that it's become easier for you to guess at what your partner wants than it is to know what you want.
Once you get more connected to what you want, it can become easier to have those conversations with your partner, and easier to stand strong in your needs.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
We often use hypnotherapy and other related frameworks to explore the emotions, beliefs, and relationships related to the codependency/attachment style. This often centers around themes of self-worth, abandonment, neglect and betrayal and the childhood regression is a real cataltyst to faciliate healing for codependency issues. We get back in touch with the root cause and give that inner child a chance to finally authentically express the words and emotions long held back. And with it, is a release of energy blocks and the path to peace is revealed. With new clarity and wisdom, you will move forward without the need to continue attaching yourself to unhealthy relationships that mirror what happened to you in childhood, because we have closed the loop and released what needed to go. That is where the shift comes and we continue installing the new hardare in that will hardwire your mind to bring in only what is the new, evolved emotional frequency and match, of an unconditional love of self first and then a match to someone who is on the same level as you.
