Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
I specialize in codependency in women. Codependency starts in childhood when you begin people pleasing to feel loved and accepted. You lose a sense of who you are, lack boundaries, and have a hard time being assertive. You may have anxiety/depression, low self worth and reach outside of yourself to fill that emptiness inside. I can help you manage your emotions instead of feeling overwhelmed by them and feel fulfilled and confident.

A good description of codependency is “when a person’s self-esteem rises and falls based on the other person’s mood, tone or experience.” But it is actually much more than that. The person is overly involved in the other person’s needs, wants, problems and issues. In reality, some of the nicest people in the world are codependent, and if not watched, all relationships have the potential to become codependent. Codependency takes healthy emotions and corrupts them. For example, empathy is a positive emotion, but in codependency the empathy rises to a level where there is no division between the two people. Generosity is also a beautiful emotion, but in codependency it turns into control and over enmeshment. In addition, the codependent person often feels excessively guilty for having any need that may create discomfort in the other person, even if the need is healthy and necessary for their emotional well-being.
The undoing of this pattern is crucial to finding one's joy and peace. We unpack this as it relates to one's relationships to others as well as to the relationship with oneself.

Melanie Fuller
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Interpersonal relationships are a fundamental aspect of the human experience. However, it is not uncommon for one to find themselves in a pattern of unhelpful relationship dynamics with their family member, significant other, colleague, etc. I have experience providing psychotherapy to individuals who describe challenges with assertive communication, boundary setting, attuning to and meeting their personal needs (emotional, interpersonal, psychological, physical, social, existential), and other behaviors, beliefs, skills, essential in forging healthy interdependent relationships.
