Joshua Lewis
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CT
It is possible to have a healthy, mutually satisfying relationship with your partner that holds room and respect for all the unique and curious ways that you each function as separate individuals within a supportive bond. We will take time to understand the ways in which we form relationships with others and how these, primarily unconscious and nonverbal, patterns get laid down early in life and are often transmitted across generations. My approach is to work from an attachment-oriented psychotherapy lens that takes into account the here/now relational experience of the therapeutic relationship between us.

Registered Psychotherapist, BA, BEd, MEd, Registered Psychotherapist
At it's heart, codependency is a deeply human survival strategy born from a profound desire for love, safety, and connection. It reflects the exhausting, often painful habit of caring for everyone/someone else at the expense of yourself. If you're looking for therapy to work on difficulties with codependency don't hesitate to reach out, it'd be wonderful to connect.

Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
When your internal compass becomes entirely fixed on monitoring the emotional states and safety of others, navigating codependency requires a gentle, slow return to your own body. I provide an affirming, non-judgmental online space in Vancouver to help you explore the wise relational survival strategies that originally led you to deprioritize yourself. Together, we will slow down and listen to your somatic cues, allowing you to reclaim your right to take up space and express your true, authentic self.

Alison Taylor
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, GIT.Dip, CAPT, CRPO
Codependency often shows up as people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, or losing yourself in relationships. Underneath these patterns is a deeply, universally human longing for connection, safety, and belonging. In our work together, we explore how your unique, brilliant, creative ways of relating developed, how they once kept you safe, and how these recurring motifs continue to shape your experience today. You’ll notice I’m hesitant to agree that you are a problem that needs to be "solved" or “fixed.” Time and again, I've found it’s just not true that there is anything wrong with you. Instead, we will bring awareness to what you’re experiencing in your body, your emotions, and your relationships in the present moment, especially when you try to express your needs or set limits. As we move with curiosity and creativity through the ways you’ve come to know yourself in the world, our discoveries can support you in reconnecting with your own sense of self, building clear, flexible boundaries, and learning how to stay connected to others without losing yourself.

Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Caregivers often put others’ needs above their own, suppressing emotions and taking on excessive responsibility. This pattern can lead to chronic stress, emotional exhaustion, and physical health challenges. I help clients to notice this pattern, access support, and cultivate self-compassion to create a healthier balance between caring for others and caring for themselves.

Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Codependency often begins as a necessary survival strategy in early childhood—a way of staying safe by becoming highly attuned to the needs of others. With over 15 years of experience helping individuals navigate complex relationship patterns, I help you understand the 'parts' of yourself that feel responsible for everyone else's emotions.
Together, we move beyond just identifying these habits to healing the underlying wounds that make setting boundaries feel dangerous. By combining my extensive clinical background with a compassionate, relational lens, I help you shift from people-pleasing toward a grounded sense of self-worth and authentic connection with others.

Karen Baker
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CTP Dipl
Codependent and people-pleasing patterns often begin as survival strategies — ways of staying safe or needed within a family system that didn't leave room for your own needs or boundaries. My work helps clients understand these patterns, learn to recognize and hold boundaries without guilt, and build relationships rooted in mutual care rather than self-sacrifice.
