Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Codependency reveals a complex dance of enmeshment and emotional dependency rooted in early relational patterns. Shaped by experiences of attachment insecurity and past traumas, individuals navigate relationships characterized by excessive care taking, people-pleasing, and a blurred sense of self. Like tendrils reaching from the past, these patterns perpetuate cycles of dysfunction and reinforce feelings of inadequacy and unworthiness. Therapy offers a transformative space for unraveling these intricate dynamics, fostering awareness of unhealthy relational patterns and reclaiming autonomy and self-worth. Through healing attachment wounds and addressing underlying trauma, individuals can cultivate healthier boundaries and authentic connections, breaking free from the chains of codependency and rediscovering the power of their own agency and identity.

Kalyna Scherbluk
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, Qualifying
Codependent patterns often stem from early experiences of attachment, caregiving roles, or trauma. I help clients understand their relationship dynamics, reconnect with their own needs, and establish healthy boundaries. Through a person-centred, emotionally attuned approach, we explore what it means to care for others without losing yourself.

entangled relationships start when we are born and are learned behaviours. Learning to create healthy boundaries and recognize each person is still seperate within the relationship can help create healthy relationships.

Codependency often stems from early relational patterns and can show up as people-pleasing, self-sacrifice, or difficulty setting boundaries. In therapy, I help you untangle these patterns with compassion and self-reflection. Together, we’ll build a stronger sense of self, cultivate healthy interdependence, and develop tools for emotional resilience and assertive communication. You deserve relationships rooted in mutual respect and authenticity.

Peter Stathakos
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, BBA, MDiv, MSW, CMAT, CSAT
Depending on others' approval or a sense of purpose is a very stressful life. It can feel very scary to be alone while having someone close romantically can feel overwhelming. Despite these extremes, you wish for more stability. I have experience helping people discover and build internal structures so they can be themselves and feel safe with others.

Victoria Lorient-Faibish
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.
