Co-Dependency: From Self-Sacrifice to Self-Sovereignty
Untangling Your Identity from the Needs of Others
Co-dependency is often the "noble" struggle. It is the exhaustion that comes from being the primary emotional caretaker, the peacekeeper, and the one who anticipates everyone else’s needs while ignoring your own. In my practice, we view co-dependent patterns as deeply ingrained attachment strategies—behaviors that were likely necessary for safety in the past but are now leading to burnout, resentment, and a loss of self.
Recognizing the Systemic Loop
Co-dependency doesn't happen in a vacuum; it is a relational "dance" that we explore through a systemic lens:
The Caretaker’s Burnout: Addressing the physical and emotional collapse that occurs when your "worth" is tied to your "usefulness."
Fear of Disconnection: Understanding the roots of the anxiety that arises when you try to set a boundary or say "no."
Emotional Enmeshment: Moving from a state where you "feel" the emotions of others more intensely than your own, toward a healthy, defined sense of self.
The Path to Relational Freedom
Using over 20 years of experience and specialized training in Attachment Theory and Systems Theory, I help you navigate the transition from enmeshment to autonomy:
Attachment Repair: We look at the "why" behind the "need to be needed," using EFT to help you develop a secure attachment to yourself first.
Internal Family Systems (IFS): We get curious about the "Protector" parts of you that believe you must be "perfect" or "helpful" to be loved.
Somatic Boundary Work: We learn to listen to the body’s signals of overwhelm and resentment, using them as a compass for where a boundary needs to be drawn.
Reclaiming Your Narrative
Whether you are navigating a relationship with a partner, a parent, or a child, the goal is not to stop caring—it is to care from a place of choice rather than a place of fear. Together, we work to build a life where you are no longer a "supporting character" in someone else’s story, but the conscious author of your own.

Aria Fraser
Hypnotherapist, Certified Rapid Transformational Therapist
If a person who is naturally a 'giver' is in a relationship with another who is a 'taker', it creates an imbalance in the relationship, leading to codependency. Rapid Transformational Therapy effectively helps a person find the root cause as to why they are always giving too much, or why they always feel the need to take. It locates the beliefs and feelings that are driving the behaviors, while reviewing past memories that would explain the need to form these beliefs. The cause(s) of those behaviors are then reframed and released in a compassionate way, and new, helpful beliefs are given directly to the subconscious mind to create positive change, leading to more beneficial behaviors. Each person in a codependent relationship would need to have separate sessions.

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.
