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.

Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You might be the one everyone leans on—always available, endlessly supportive, and quick to smooth things over. But underneath that strength, there’s a quiet exhaustion. Maybe you’ve spent so long tending to others that you’ve lost touch with your own voice. You may struggle to set boundaries, prioritize your own needs, or feel okay when someone else is upset. Maybe you define your worth through how much you give or help, but deep down, you’re craving space to just be… without performing, fixing, or proving.
At The Momentum Practice, I help clients untangle patterns of codependency that often start early—growing up in families where your worth was tied to being helpful, agreeable, or emotionally attuned to others. These patterns can show up in adult life in all kinds of relationships: romantic partnerships, friendships, caregiving roles, family systems, and even the workplace, where over-functioning often gets mistaken for excellence. You might find yourself constantly people-pleasing, second-guessing your instincts, or feeling panicked at the thought of being left behind. They can be especially layered for LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent folks who’ve had to mask parts of themselves to stay safe, loved, or accepted.
We’ll explore how these ways of relating helped you survive—and how they might be keeping you stuck now. Together, we’ll work on building boundaries that feel empowering (not selfish), tuning into your own needs and desires, and letting go of the belief that your value comes from how much you give. We’ll also look at how systemic pressures may have reinforced these patterns over time. Our work might include unlearning perfectionism, quieting the inner critic, and cultivating self-trust that isn’t tied to how much you do for others.
With over 15 years of experience, I offer a compassionate space to reconnect with your own voice and needs. You don’t have to keep disappearing in your relationships. Whether we’re working one-on-one or navigating these dynamics in couples therapy, you’ll have a space to explore what healthier, more mutual connection can look like. If you're ready to show up more fully for yourself and build connections that don’t come at the cost of your own well-being, I’d be honored to journey alongside you. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!

Codependency can feel like a cycle that’s hard to break, but change is possible when you remember your innate belonging and ability to trust yourSelf.
