The main sign of codependency is consistently elevating the needs of others above your own. Other signs include controlling behaviors, self-sacrifice, and fear of rejection. But these aren’t the only ones. We help with emphasizing that the importance is to seak self love and self care above all and see self value.

Rochelle Aljammas (Trauma, Relationship, BPD)
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., B.A. (Hons)
If much of your emotional wellbeing feels tied to others — their moods, needs, or actions — this can quietly erode your sense of self. We’ll work on boundaries, self‑worth, and recognizing your own needs (which are just as valid). I help you disentangle who you are from who you’re trying to help, so you can feel more whole, autonomous, and connected.

Goran Kosanovic
Registered Psychotherapist, HBCom, MACP
Codependency can create unhealthy, one-sided relationships where individuals feel overly responsible for others’ feelings, behaviors, or well-being. Through solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT), individuals can explore the patterns that contribute to codependent behaviors and work toward establishing healthier boundaries, self-esteem, and emotional independence. Therapy helps clients recognize the signs of codependency in relationships, whether in romantic partnerships, family dynamics, or friendships, and provides actionable tools to build more balanced, mutually fulfilling connections. Overcoming codependency allows individuals to regain self-worth, foster personal growth, and develop healthier, more sustainable relationships.
