Codependency
Charles R. Davenport, Psy.D., LLC.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Codependency is a popular term these days. It can be subtle or much more overt. Frequently seen with other problematic relationship problems, substance abuse, depression and anxiety. Many times this is seen passed through families. We are not sure if it is a nature or nurture thing. Therapy can be a helpful part of the puzzle. Treatment tends to take longer with this stuff.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
The concept of Co-Dependency was developed as a way of explaining how family members of alcoholics, especially their spouses, became emotionally ill apparently as a result of living with an alcoholic for years.
"Co" is a prefix that means "like" or "with" - the family member becomes sick like and with "the dependent" (the person dependent on a chemical). There are several common problems that often go along with life with an alcoholic or drug abuser, including their unpredictable moods, selfish and irresponsible behavior, angry outbursts which may include verbal or physical abuse, broken promises and commitments, embarrassing public behavior, financial irresponsibility, legal problems, and inability to return love or affection. However, most chemically dependent people have periods when they function well, and this generates the hope that they will stay well, quit or control their chemical use, and become responsible and loving for good.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Codependency is a learned pattern of interacting. We can unlearn these patterns, too. First we are going to identify the needs and learn more accurate self talk around self-esteem and self-worth. We will talk about triggers that might cause you to fall back into old patterns and ways to act with love, but not entangled in someone else's distress.
