Codependency
Dr. C. Shawn Oak, Oak & Associates, LLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, PHD, MSSW, LMFT (KY/IN) LSCW (IN), ACS, CLC, CMC
Codependency is an obsessive, all-consuming need to please and win another’s attentions, to the point of controlling and manipulating them to do so and sacrifice one's own well-being if necessary. In a codependent relationship one loses sight of their own needs. Becoming our authentic self is key.

Codependency
Dr. Shelley Sommerfeldt
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Codependency often involves losing yourself in relationships, putting others’ needs above your own, struggling with boundaries, or tying your self-worth to how others feel. I help individuals recognize these patterns, rebuild a strong sense of self, and develop healthier, more balanced relationships. Together, we’ll work to create emotional independence, stronger boundaries, and a deeper sense of confidence and self-respect.

Codependency
Mr. Dan Pugel
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor
Codependency is a well worn "buzz word" meaning when one person takes on some of the unhealthy characteristics of the unhealthy person they are in relationship with. One may have a sense of over-responsibility and the other person's problems become your problem. Self worth becomes dependent on the actions and attitudes of others and based on the approval of others.
There's often a sense of needing to solve the other persons problems, to give more in order to be loved. Symptoms of codependency may include: an intense fear of rejection, the need to control or the perception of being controlled.
Boundaries are designed to, define one self in, and live out healthier relationship. It is difficult to commit to what you will accept and what you will not accept when in a codependent relationship. You may waver on what you will do and not do, say and not say. Responsibility is one of the most freeing concepts in relationship and also can be one of the most distorted and confusing aspects between two people. Responsibility is a reciprocating aspect of boundaries and among other concepts allows for a healthy interdependence between two people (not independence nor dependence).
Codependency can stem from early experiences learned in relationship. Sometimes this learning is ingrained and requires some deeper healing work. It is possible to move past the pain, heal and design life around healthy boundaries.

Codependency
Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk

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.

Meads is a small community in Boyd County in eastern Kentucky, part of the Ashland area where Kentucky, Ohio, and West Virginia meet along the Ohio River. The area shares the broader mental health challenges of Appalachian communities — economic transition after the decline of steel and coal-linked industries, one of the country's most severe opioid epidemics, and cultural expectations of self-reliance that can delay help-seeking. Care is anchored by Ashland's regional providers, including King's Daughters Medical Center, with telehealth increasingly important for specialist access.
