Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
The concept of Co-Dependency was developed as a way of explaining how family members of alcoholics, especially their spouses, became emotionally ill apparently as a result of living with an alcoholic for years.
"Co" is a prefix that means "like" or "with" - the family member becomes sick like and with "the dependent" (the person dependent on a chemical). There are several common problems that often go along with life with an alcoholic or drug abuser, including their unpredictable moods, selfish and irresponsible behavior, angry outbursts which may include verbal or physical abuse, broken promises and commitments, embarrassing public behavior, financial irresponsibility, legal problems, and inability to return love or affection. However, most chemically dependent people have periods when they function well, and this generates the hope that they will stay well, quit or control their chemical use, and become responsible and loving for good.

Donna Hurd
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor
If you have been trained from childhood to react or behave in a certain manner that feels unnatural to you, as an adult it may feel that you do not really know who you are. Treating codependency and finding the person you truly are can be an enlightening, "coming home" kind of experience.

Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Are you finding yourself stuck in relationships where you feel overly responsible for others' well-being, or in a constant cycle of trying to “fix” a partner? Perhaps you’re experiencing the pain and confusion of trauma bonding—being attached to someone who is emotionally unavailable or even harmful, but feeling powerless to leave. These cycles of codependency and trauma bonding often leave us feeling trapped, unworthy, and emotionally drained.
In our work together, we’ll go beyond surface-level coping strategies. As a licensed psychologist and certified coach, I’ll help you dive deep into understanding the roots of these patterns, often developed as survival mechanisms in early life or previous relationships. We’ll explore how your history has shaped your responses, and I’ll support you in learning healthier ways to connect with others.
Through our sessions, you’ll gain tools to:
-Build your self-worth independent of external validation
-Set clear, compassionate boundaries that feel authentic to you
-Recognize the signs of unhealthy attachment and rewrite your narrative
-Foster a sense of inner security and resilience
Therapy with me isn’t about a quick fix, but meaningful change. We’ll focus on reclaiming your sense of self, strengthening your voice, and freeing yourself from relationships that don’t serve your growth. Let’s work together to break these cycles and create the space for connections that uplift, respect, and honor who you truly are.
