Resolving childhood trauma and stress will eliminate the need for codependent behavior, which stems from childhood distorted messages. Set boundaries effectively, develop self-worth, and an inner sense of safety that is not dependent on external variables.
I specialise in working with clients with codependency issues. This is includes clients raised in narcissist or who found themselves in relationship with such induviduals and who are seeking strategies to manage or leave their relationships. Co-dependent relationship can be challenging and leaving you feeling devastated, lost, hopeless - i provide a space where you will be seen and heard, and support you to reclaim your autonomy and become more empowered.

I deal with Codependency especially to help sufferers to stop rescuing unnecessarily and to uncover Love Avoidant Addicts and Love Seeker Addicts to gain a healthier lifestyle and to enjoy fuller healthier relationships with others.
I find that this painful way of relating occurs frequently in the lives of the clients who come to see me. Through exploring what is often an underlying trauma we can get to the bottom of why we relate in this way, often finding new and more nourishing ways of being in relationship
