Need help breaking free from unhealthy patterns of codependency? Let's work together to help you build confident, stronger, healthier relationships - and creating a life of balance, joy, and self-care.
I provide couples/family/relational therapy for adolescents and adults both in the context of their relationships as well as through relationship-focused therapy for individuals who want to improve their interpersonal lives. Our relationships impact our thoughts, our feelings, and our behaviors. Relationships can be supportive, or they can weigh us down. How our relationships impact us can be obvious to us and everyone around us, or they can be insidious and live in the pit of our stomachs-- creeping up on us as feelings we can’t put the right words to. ...and anywhere in between… It can be difficult to understand and connect how these feelings slowly change what we do and who we are. ‘Relational’ therapy with more than one client aims to help improve interactions with each other, achieve relational goals, and cultivate value and meaning together.
Having recovered from codependency myself I understand intimately the difficulties that come with issue. I have learned what drives this issue and how to correct it.
I can guide and support individuals dealing with codependency by facilitating creative processes that encourage self-exploration, fostering self-awareness, and empowering them to establish healthy boundaries and cultivate self-care practices.
Codependency can leave you feeling depleted and insecure and I can assist you in understanding its roots while also helping you learn to create more balance in caring for others and yourself.
I will help you discover how you became Co-Dependent as a child, and provide you with tools and understanding to change that dynamic with your loved ones and friends.
