Codependency

Many clients seek therapy when they begin to notice an imbalance in their close relationships—giving more than they receive, or feeling dependent on others and stuck in a one-down position. Codependency can manifest as taking on excessive responsibility and rescuing others from the natural consequences of their actions. Conversely, others may become overly dependent and rely too heavily on the “responsible” person, and fail to take healthy responsibility and ownership of their own choices and lives.  

​

In therapy, we work to understand the origins of these painful and limiting relational patterns and, through the therapeutic relationship, cultivate a more balanced and authentic way of relating—one grounded in self-awareness, clear boundaries, personal responsibility, and a deeper capacity for mutual, healthy interdependence.
