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.

Shelley Klammer
Counselor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
If you are a heart-centred, empathic woman, you might have challenges setting healthy boundaries with people and could be stuck in fawning, pleasing, and appeasing patterns to feel safe and connected. I can support you in defining your values and setting either flexible or non-negotiable boundaries, depending on the circumstances. I can help you move through self-doubt and into your authentic self-expression. The therapy that I offer is in-depth and often involves going back to the inner child, where your inner defense patterns and relationship patterns began, to initiate deep emotional healing and safety.

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.

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.
