Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
Codependency therapy, also known as codependency counseling or codependency treatment, is a specialized form of counseling that focuses on assisting individuals to break codependent patterns and develop healthier relationships and boundaries. Codependency is a dysfunctional and facilitating relationship pattern in which individuals place the demands and desires of others above their own.
The therapeutic approach for codependency can vary based on the individual's unique requirements, the severity of their codependency, and their treatment objectives. Individuals can break free from codependent patterns, develop healthier relationship skills, and improve their emotional well-being through therapy.
If codependency is significantly affecting your relationships and well-being, it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a qualified mental health professional with experience in codependency therapy in order to address your specific needs and work towards building healthier relationships and a more satisfying life.

Dr. Karen Perez
Licensed Professional Counselor, PsyD, PhD, LPC, LLP
People with codependency often put everyone else’s needs above their own. As a result, they can develop feelings of resentment and emptiness. They may also find themselves in toxic relationships. Therapy can help a person develop healthier ways of interacting with others. Learning, and allowing yourself to draw healthy boundaries can in fact benefit a relationship. When people communicate clearly what they do and do not want, there is less room for misunderstandings. A “no” can also help someone prioritize their time and energy on the tasks that really matter. Over time, the codependent person may develop more energy and a better mood. These changes can improve the relationship as a whole.

Josh Murray- Hopeful Minds
Psychologist, MA, LLP
Codependency is often referred to as “relationship addiction.” It’s an emotional and behavioral condition that interferes with an individual’s ability to develop a healthy, mutually satisfying relationship. It can be frustrating and destructive, but there are things that you can do to learn how to stop being codependent. To start, you should:
Look for signs of a healthy relationship
Maintain healthy boundaries
Care for yourself
Get help from a mental health professional
The term codependency was first used to describe the partner of someone with an addiction—whose unhealthy choices enable or encourage the addiction to continue. But over the years, it’s been expanded to include individuals who maintain one-sided, emotionally destructive, or abusive relationships, and those relationships don’t necessarily have to be romantic.
Therapy can help individuals with overcoming codependency. Some individuals are able to overcome codependency on their own. Learning about what it means to be codependent and the harm it causes can be enough for some individuals to change their behavior.

Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Have you noticed that you haven’t been feeling quite like yourself? Like something feels off, but you’re not exactly sure why? No matter how hard you work, you always feel behind and can't seem to ever catch up on your to-do list. Maybe you keep thinking that you "should" be doing better and you "shouldn't" be struggling this way. You want to be present, calm, and confident, but you aren’t sure how to get there. It is possible for you to feel like yourself again and I'd love to talk to you about how you can get there.
I help teens, adults, and couples who are feeling stuck and disconnected to find freedom and relief. I'll collaborate with you to notice the themes and patterns occurring in your life that might be causing problems and then work alongside you to find new options and solutions to address those patterns.
Whether you are experiencing anxiety, dealing with past trauma, relationship difficulties, or just think it might be helpful to talk to someone about how you are feeling, I’d love to talk with you about how I can help. Visit my website to schedule a free phone consultation, and we can chat about whether I might be the right therapist for you.
