Licensed Professional Counsellor, MA, CCC
You don’t have to lose yourself to be loved.
If you find yourself overgiving in relationships, struggling to set boundaries, or feeling anxious when you're not needed, you may be dealing with codependent patterns. These often come from early wounds and parts of us that equate love with self-sacrifice or people-pleasing. As someone who specializes in dating and relationships—and is currently writing a book on dating through the lens of Internal Family Systems (IFS)—I help you identify the parts of you that fear being alone, not enough, or too much. Together, we’ll untangle old patterns, heal the underlying wounds, and reconnect you with your True Self—so you can build relationships from a place of wholeness rather than need.

Transformative Codependency Therapy: Reclaim Your Power and Honour Your Needs
Hi, I'm Tracey, and I’m here to guide you on a heartfelt journey to break free from codependency and rediscover your true self. If you’re constantly seeking others’ approval, worrying about what they think, or abandoning your own needs to please them, I see how exhausting that can be. You might feel like you’re giving and helping, but when those efforts aren’t returned, resentment, anger, or disappointment can creep in, leaving you drained. I’ve been there, witnessing those patterns in myself and others, and I’m here to help you find a new way forward.
A Path to Healing Codependency
In our work together, we’ll gently uncover the part of you that keeps leaving yourself behind to meet others’ expectations. Codependency often feels natural—like you’re just being kind—but it can come with hidden strings, breeding stress when those expectations aren’t met. We’ll focus on healing that pattern by learning to deeply meet your own emotional needs, giving you the courage to set healthy boundaries without fear. I’ll support you in saying “no” when it feels scary and trusting that it’s okay to prioritize yourself, even if others react with upset or anger.
My approach is trauma-informed, intuitive, and tailored to your unique story. We’ll work on letting go of being controlled by others’ emotions, like their frustration or disappointment, and instead honour what you need to feel whole. This isn’t about becoming selfish—it’s about reclaiming your power and building relationships that feel balanced and authentic.
Start Your Journey to Freedom
You don’t have to keep leaking your energy to others’ demands. If you’re ready to heal codependency, set boundaries with confidence, and live from a place of self-trust, I’m here to walk with you. Let’s create a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered to honour your own heart. Book a consultation with me today, and let’s start this transformative journey together.

Registered Psychotherapist, RP, M.Ed.
Codependency can feel confusing and confounding. We are trying to sort out "who am I and who is the other?" Setting and maintaining boundaries and developing self awareness can be just two responses. The reward of doing this work is a clearer sense of one's self in relation to others.

Collaborative Care Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Codependency is a complex emotional and behavioral condition that often arises in relationships marked by an unhealthy level of emotional reliance or control. At Collaborative Care Therapy, we approach codependency with an integrative, relational, and trauma-informed perspective, understanding the deep-seated roots that often drive these patterns.
Our therapy sessions are designed to unpack the multifaceted layers of codependency. We delve into how past experiences, possibly stemming from childhood or previous relationships, have shaped current behaviors and emotional responses. Recognizing that codependency often originates from a place of trauma or unmet emotional needs, we provide a safe and empathetic space for exploration and healing.
In addressing codependency, we employ a blend of therapeutic approaches tailored to each individual’s needs. Cognitive-behavioral therapy helps in identifying and altering detrimental thought patterns and behaviors. At the same time, our relational approach fosters a deeper understanding of interpersonal dynamics. We also incorporate mindfulness techniques to enhance self-awareness and emotional regulation.
Our goal is not just to break the cycle of codependency but to empower individuals to build healthier, more autonomous relationships. This involves cultivating self-esteem, learning to set healthy boundaries, and developing effective communication skills. We guide you in recognizing your own needs and values, encouraging a journey towards self-discovery and personal growth.
Through virtual sessions, we offer the convenience and comfort of accessing therapy from your environment, ensuring continuous and personalized support. Begin your path to recovery from codependency with Collaborative Care Therapy, and discover the strength in building balanced, fulfilling relationships.
