Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
No two people that struggle with co-dependency share the same symptoms. What we do know is that co-dependency involves giving too much at your own expense, and asking for what we need can become daunting. Co-dependency recovery relies on four areas: refocusing on yourself; ii) setting firm boundaries, iii) learning how to identify healthy relationships; and iv) internal family system work. Let's learn about you got here and how we can tailor your learned reactions.

Registered Psychotherapist, MEd, RP, CCC, RPE
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.

Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, IMD (candidate)
Codependency is a relationship type, and is often wonderful until it's not. When it's not, boundaries come in. Boundaries are essential to all relationships because it allows you to form the ideal relationship you want. Understanding what the codependent relationship was providing you with allows an understanding and compassion to intentionally take steps towards your ideal behaviors and ways of relating.
