How much better to put your mind and energy to taking care of your self and depending on your own efforts than to believe you can't be OK unless you qualifier (addict) gets sober. I can help and guide you on how to get into your own recovery and long lasting sobriety.

Co-Dependency: From Self-Sacrifice to Self-Sovereignty
Untangling Your Identity from the Needs of Others
Co-dependency is often the "noble" struggle. It is the exhaustion that comes from being the primary emotional caretaker, the peacekeeper, and the one who anticipates everyone else’s needs while ignoring your own. In my practice, we view co-dependent patterns as deeply ingrained attachment strategies—behaviors that were likely necessary for safety in the past but are now leading to burnout, resentment, and a loss of self.
Recognizing the Systemic Loop
Co-dependency doesn't happen in a vacuum; it is a relational "dance" that we explore through a systemic lens:
The Caretaker’s Burnout: Addressing the physical and emotional collapse that occurs when your "worth" is tied to your "usefulness."
Fear of Disconnection: Understanding the roots of the anxiety that arises when you try to set a boundary or say "no."
Emotional Enmeshment: Moving from a state where you "feel" the emotions of others more intensely than your own, toward a healthy, defined sense of self.
The Path to Relational Freedom
Using over 20 years of experience and specialized training in Attachment Theory and Systems Theory, I help you navigate the transition from enmeshment to autonomy:
Attachment Repair: We look at the "why" behind the "need to be needed," using EFT to help you develop a secure attachment to yourself first.
Internal Family Systems (IFS): We get curious about the "Protector" parts of you that believe you must be "perfect" or "helpful" to be loved.
Somatic Boundary Work: We learn to listen to the body’s signals of overwhelm and resentment, using them as a compass for where a boundary needs to be drawn.
Reclaiming Your Narrative
Whether you are navigating a relationship with a partner, a parent, or a child, the goal is not to stop caring—it is to care from a place of choice rather than a place of fear. Together, we work to build a life where you are no longer a "supporting character" in someone else’s story, but the conscious author of your own.

Becca Edwards
Therapist, LMSW, Ed.S., M.ed
When you’re used to prioritizing everyone else’s needs, it can be difficult to know what you need or where your responsibilities end and someone else’s begin. Therapy can be a space to explore patterns of people-pleasing, over-functioning, difficulty setting boundaries, and losing yourself in relationships, while developing greater self-trust and autonomy.

Aysha DeSilva
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I support individuals who struggle with codependency and patterns of losing themselves in relationships. Using psychodynamic therapy, interpersonal therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and EMDR, I enjoy helping clients understand the underlying experiences that add to these patterns while building healthier relationships and a stronger sense of self.
