Marina Sud
Psychologist, PsyD, Certified in Brainspotting, Certification in Psychoanalysis
I help my clients break free from patterns of people-pleasing, over-responsibility, and self-neglect that often stem from early relational dynamics. Together, we explore the roots of these patterns, strengthen healthy boundaries, and cultivate self-worth that isn’t dependent on others’ approval. My approach fosters emotional independence, self-compassion, and authentic connection—empowering clients to build relationships grounded in balance, respect, and mutual care.

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.

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.

Dina Hijazi
Psychologist, PhD, CSAT
I help individuals break free from codependent patterns by fostering healthy boundaries, self-worth, and emotional independence. Using a blend of relational therapy, attachment-focused work, and psychoeducation, I support clients in understanding the roots of their codependency—often tied to early family dynamics or trauma—and guide them toward more balanced, fulfilling relationships. My goal is to help you reconnect with your own needs, values, and voice in a supportive, nonjudgmental space.
