Codependency is a circular pattern that emerge in relationships when one person needs another person to need them in order to keep the relationship going. This is an unhealthy pattern and often leads to unhappiness and toxic patterns in relationships. I approach these relationships from a place of empathy and concern for all parties involved. It is my goal to illuminate these patterns and teach individuals to set healthy boundaries that will allow them to break free of codependent relationships and live healthier and happier lives with friends and family.

While the term codependency is often used exclusively in relationships where one partner is an addict, I believe it is important to look at the role of codependency in all relationships. Whenever we are excessively tied to someone needing emotional or psychological support and when there does not exist a process to hand over autonomy or responsibility to the person who's been impaired, we have to examine our codependency issues. While our conscious intent may be to be helpful and nothing more, codependent behaviors may be fueled by underlying needs for security, validation, power, and self-esteem. Whatever the cause, freedom from codependency generally results in greatly increased energy, passion for life, and happiness.

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.
