Codependency
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.

Codependency can often lead to unhealthy relationships, low self esteem, and abuse. I work with clients to challenge codependent behaviors to increase freedom and autonomy in their life.

Camille Larsen
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LAC
One of the areas I work with a lot is codependency. People who complete this work report relating to people in positive ways they did not know were possible. They report more confidence, less resentment, and less of setting themselves up to be taken advantage of. We talk about what healthy boundaries look like and how to gradually move toward them in a relational way.
