Psychologist, Psy.D.
Is it Really Codependency or Trauma Bonding?
You’re the strong one: the fixer, the reliable partner, the woman who makes everything look easy. But when it comes to love, you keep finding yourself in toxic, one-sided relationships that leave you depleted, anxious, and doubting your worth.
Maybe someone called it codependency, but that label doesn’t feel right. You’re not weak: you’re a high-achieving, capable woman who’s been conditioned to overgive, accommodate, and hold chaos together. What’s really happening is trauma bonding and attachment wounding, patterns that began long before this relationship and keep you hooked on people who can’t or won’t show up for you.
Questions You May Ask
“Is this codependency or trauma bonding?”
“Why do I feel addicted to someone who’s hurting me?”
“How can I be so successful in life but so lost in love?”
“How do I stop choosing emotionally unavailable or narcissistic partners?”
“Why can’t I stop trying to fix people who won’t change?”
How I Help You Break the Pattern
With 20+ years as a licensed psychologist and advanced training in narcissistic abuse recovery, trauma bonding, and emotional burnout, I guide women to:
Rebuild self-worth that isn’t tied to rescuing or being needed
Identify and heal trauma bonds and love addiction
Set boundaries without guilt or fear of abandonment
Understand attachment wounds and their impact on adult relationships
Stop over-functioning and rescuing, even with co-parents or ex-partners
Recover from gaslighting and manipulation so you can trust your intuition
Reclaim your identity, voice, and personal power
You don’t have to keep choosing people who don’t choose you. Let’s untangle the patterns, heal the wounds that keep you stuck, and build a life where your love is valued.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Setting healthy boundaries is something many of us did not effectively learn in childhood, even in the most well meaning and loving of families. We have, instead, learned to live life to serve others and to prioritize the needs of others, even when doing so harms ourselves. My approach is to help my clients create healthy boundaries, advocate for the self, learn to communicate our needs clearly and directly, and then learn to act upon the needs we have outlined to those we love so we can cultivate healthy and mutually effective relationships. Cutting the ties of codependency is central to this process: staying in one's own lane, letting others solve their own problems, offering compassion and help when asked, letting go of the rescue fantasy, living without an emotional hangover, and learning to accept that there is much we cannot control.

Codependency is often closely associated with trauma, loss, or dysfunctional family systems. Because we specialize in trauma, we naturally are working quite often with codependency.

HUGH R STEWART III
Hypnotherapist, Ph.D., ACHt.
Codependency is another specialty of mine in being a people pleaser. If you are looking to find someone to complete you, you probably have codependent qualities. Codependent people find their self esteem through helping others often at ones own expense. Codependency is all about looking outside ourselves for answers/happiness instead of inward. Happiness and all of our answers to our questions lie within if we can become still enough to listen to our intuition. Successful relationships are more interdependent where we both have our lives, interests, friends, family, etc. and intersect with our partners when we are doing something together. Many of my clients have gone to Codependents Anonymous, ACOA, Alanon, etc. These are safe spaces to explore more interdependent and independent ways of being and share our experiences without being judged. There are many great books on codependency. I teach people how to become your own person not needing approval from others and celebrating your interdependence with one another when in relationship.
