Rachel Hiraldo
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, CCATP
Kudos to you for seeing out help and for making the effort to improve your life! If you're suffering with codependency, it's likely that relationship issues, insecurity, anxiety, depression, or even past trauma are also a concern for you. Because I have extensive experience with all of these issues, I'm likely a good fit to support and guide you towards gaining more insight and making some needed shifts in some of your patterns. I support those who are trying to take a natural, medication-free approach, as well as those who are considering or already utilizing mediation as an additional aid. I love what I do because I love getting to see my clients' lives improve. If you'd like to determine if I could be a good fit for you, please schedule a free 15 minute consult with me (via my website). I do also provide therapy in Spanish.

Abby Cobey
Psychologist, PsyD
I get asked a lot about codependency. It's a tricky concept and behavior pattern that is so easy to fall into particularly if we have had substance abuse or really any type of abuse in our relationship history. It's about seeking to control without knowing that's what we're doing. We will work on making choices that are consistent with your values so that you end up in meaningful relationships in which you be around the people in your life without compromising yourself.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
The concept of Co-Dependency was developed as a way of explaining how family members of alcoholics, especially their spouses, became emotionally ill apparently as a result of living with an alcoholic for years.
"Co" is a prefix that means "like" or "with" - the family member becomes sick like and with "the dependent" (the person dependent on a chemical). There are several common problems that often go along with life with an alcoholic or drug abuser, including their unpredictable moods, selfish and irresponsible behavior, angry outbursts which may include verbal or physical abuse, broken promises and commitments, embarrassing public behavior, financial irresponsibility, legal problems, and inability to return love or affection. However, most chemically dependent people have periods when they function well, and this generates the hope that they will stay well, quit or control their chemical use, and become responsible and loving for good.

My approach teaches you to depend on yourself and to be self-directed. You can learn to help yourself if you improve your discomfort tolerance for doing things for yourself, taking calculated risks, and accept yourself even when you fail.
