I have a particular interest in supporting people with breaking free from codependent patterns of relating and learning to prioritise their own needs first , working towards understanding the origins of these patterns and coping skills in order to move forward. We may work specifically around the need for implementing boundaries and self care.

Co-dependency is when we lose sight of ourselves and get lost in someone else; when we have never learned how to notice and assert what we ourselves need in a particular relationship. Do you put the other first and increasingly hear a trapped voice in you whispering ´´What about me?´´ Let´s coax that part of you out, find out what you need to own as yours, what independence really can look like when it is allowed in.

Relationships are difficult. Sometimes our need for a relationship undermines our ability to function. This is made more complex when the significant other experiences a similar dysfunctional drive. The good news: this can be fixed. It is possible to have healthy, mutually respectful, and supportive relationships.
