Codependency
Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Codependency in the context of narcissistic relationships isn't simply about being "too nice" or "too giving." It is a deeply conditioned pattern that develops when you've spent years in a relationship where your worth was contingent on managing someone else's emotional state, anticipating their needs, and suppressing your own. Many of the mothers I work with don't recognize codependency in themselves at first — they describe it as just being a good partner, a good mother, a good person. Over time, the relationship with a narcissistic or emotionally abusive partner erodes the boundary between self-care and self-erasure. Healing codependency in this context means more than reading boundaries books. It means untangling why the relationship felt so compelling, what attachment wounds made it feel familiar, and how to rebuild a relationship with yourself that isn't organized around someone else's chaos. I specialize in codependency recovery for mothers leaving or healing from narcissistic and emotionally abusive relationships, using trauma-informed therapy that gets to the roots.

Richard Forde
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Counselor
The common pattern in unhealthy relationship dynamics, is the "dance" between "the dominant controller" and the "compliant submissive." The "compliant submissive" typically "over functions" in the relationship, seeking to repair "ruptures" as they occur, and keep the relationship "connected" and moving forward. The "compliant submissive" is keeping themself "safe" through "pleaser" behaviors, trying to avoid conflict. This type of "survival" behavior is generally a result of inadequate attachment in childhood and fosters behaviors we refer to as "codependency." Therapy can be used for the purpose of "attachment repair" as a way of addressing the underlying cause of codependent behaviors.

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address codependency by combining psychological expertise with Christian principles to guide individuals toward healthier relational dynamics. Recognizing the often complex and intertwined nature of codependent relationships, I incorporate biblical teachings on boundaries, self-worth, and dependence on God. Through therapeutic interventions, clients are encouraged to explore and understand the patterns of codependency, identifying unhealthy behaviors and fostering self-awareness. I integrate prayer and scriptural reflection to help clients find strength in their faith, emphasizing the importance of relying on God rather than solely on others for validation and fulfillment. Christian counseling for codependency often involves promoting a balanced understanding of love, emphasizing the significance of self-care, and encouraging clients to cultivate a deeper connection with their spiritual identity. By integrating Christian values, the counselor supports individuals in breaking free from codependent patterns and building relationships rooted in healthy interdependence and trust in God.

Together, we’ll create space for healthier relationships and a stronger, more empowered sense of self.
