Candace Plattor
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Adler University
When we keep trying to put other people's needs ahead of our own, we lose ourselves in terms of our self-care and our self-respect. Often families do this with the addicts they love - and it creates a lose-lose situation for everyone concerned,

Kelsey Ellis
Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Codependent patterns often develop from a deep sensitivity to others and a strong desire to maintain connection. Over time, this can lead to prioritizing others’ needs while losing sight of your own boundaries or identity. Many women find themselves over-giving, people-pleasing, or feeling responsible for others’ emotions. In our work together, we focus on understanding how these patterns formed, strengthening your sense of self, and building ways of relating that allow for connection without self-sacrifice.

Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Codependency is what happens when you've learned that love requires self-erasure. When taking care of others feels safer than having needs of your own. When saying no feels like a threat to the relationship. At Simple Empathy we use IFS and Narrative Therapy to help you understand where that pattern came from, which parts of you maintain it, and what it would look like to be in relationship without losing yourself in the process. This work is direct and sometimes uncomfortable. It's also some of the most freeing work a person can do.

Benjamin Smalley, TherapyKC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Codependency usually means a difficulty in being a separate person. It can be hard to disagree and have your own inner experiences that are separate from a close person. It becomes clearer when we recognize that we struggle with: putting others’ needs ahead of your own, setting boundaries, or feel responsible for how others feel. Over time, this can lead to resentment, burnout, or a loss of your sense of self. Therapy focuses on helping you reconnect with your own needs, develop healthier boundaries, and build relationships that feel more balanced and sustainable.
