Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Growing up in a less than nurturing environment can lead to all sorts of codependent traits, resulting in struggles with: self-esteem, self-care, boundaries, controlling others, taking care of your adult needs, perfectionism, and emotional flooding, to name a few. I am well versed in the 12-step program of codependents anonymous and the issues that are helped through attending meetings. I recommend the program, but it is not required to understand or heal the above issues.

Elizabeth Essner, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The relationship between the therapist and the client is the most important factor in providing "successful" therapy. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you can explore codependency issues. Likely you are experiencing pain that you want to end. I can help you gain freedom from the cycle of codependency.

Robin Bates-Pualuan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
Do you find it difficult to say no? Do you always put the needs of others ahead of your own? Do you feel selfish when you take care of yourself? While many people who answer yes to these questions have a generous heart, they can end up feeling used up and taken advantage of. Therapy can be a great place to learn to understand the importance of your own needs and how to meet them in a way that's self-nourishing, not selfish.

Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
When my identity becomes wrapped up in what my partner thinks about me, I find myself in the codependant position. It becomes hard for me or my partner to feel anything because our feelings are so triggering to each other. If we were both healthy my partner could have a bad day or a bad mood and I could be fine. But when I am codependent, I need my partner to be happy all the time because if they mad, sad, or bad, it means there is something wrong with me and now I am in an identity crisis. If you can relate to this, reach out to us, we can help you engage principles of relational intelligence in your life that will support your emotional stability and relational well being.

Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Codependency means well. It has the best of intentions. It is only trying to help, to be of service, to protect, to belong. And yet, within a confined space, there is not enough air to breathe, no room to grow, and for folks in a family or in a relationship, the effects stifle and suffocate, and slowly, slowly, slowly, like a frog in boiling water, you don't realize the difficult space you are in until it is almost too late. Let's untie the cords that bind you in your relationships with others!

Allie Kaelin
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, APCC
One of the first steps in therapy is helping clients become aware of their codependent behaviors and understand how they may have developed over time. Many people who struggle with codependency don’t realize that their actions are rooted in unhealthy relational dynamics or deep-seated fears of abandonment, rejection, or guilt. Through conversation, reflection, and sometimes journaling or self-assessments, we work together to identify these patterns.

Charis Khoury
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
For those that were trained to self-abandon, returning "home" and learning to derive self worth from more reliable (internal) sources is one of the most rewarding achievements.
