Co-dependency is a complex issue, and it's important to recognize that no two individuals struggling with co-dependency share the same symptoms or experiences. At our practice, we understand that co-dependency involves a pattern of giving too much of oneself at the expense of personal well-being, often finding it challenging to ask for our own needs to be met.
In co-dependency recovery, we focus on four essential areas to support your healing journey. Firstly, we help you refocus on yourself, fostering self-awareness and self-care. This involves exploring your own needs, desires, and values, and learning how to prioritize your own well-being without guilt or fear.
Secondly, we work on setting firm boundaries. Boundaries are crucial in maintaining healthy relationships and protecting your own emotional and physical boundaries. We assist you in developing effective communication skills to express your needs, desires, and limitations in a clear and assertive manner.
Thirdly, we guide you in identifying healthy relationships. We explore patterns and dynamics that may have contributed to co-dependency, enabling you to recognize and establish relationships that are based on mutual respect, reciprocity, and emotional balance.
Lastly, we incorporate internal family system work. This approach helps you understand the different parts of yourself and their roles in your co-dependency patterns. By exploring and healing these internal dynamics, you can develop healthier reactions and responses to challenging situations.
In our sessions, we will collaborate to understand your unique journey and tailor our approach to your specific needs. We will explore your past experiences, relationships, and learned reactions, helping you gain insight into how co-dependency developed and identifying strategies for growth and change.
Our goal is to provide a supportive and non-judgmental space for you to explore your co-dependency patterns and develop healthier ways of relating to yourself and others. Together, we will work towards empowering you to break free from the cycle of co-dependency and cultivate a more balanced and fulfilling life. Let's embark on this journey of self-discovery and transformation together.

EMDR and Trauma Therapy Centre
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Codependency reveals a complex dance of enmeshment and emotional dependency rooted in early relational patterns. Shaped by experiences of attachment insecurity and past traumas, individuals navigate relationships characterized by excessive care taking, people-pleasing, and a blurred sense of self. Like tendrils reaching from the past, these patterns perpetuate cycles of dysfunction and reinforce feelings of inadequacy and unworthiness. Therapy offers a transformative space for unraveling these intricate dynamics, fostering awareness of unhealthy relational patterns and reclaiming autonomy and self-worth. Through healing attachment wounds and addressing underlying trauma, individuals can cultivate healthier boundaries and authentic connections, breaking free from the chains of codependency and rediscovering the power of their own agency and identity.

Victoria Lorient-Faibish
Registered Psychotherapist, MEd, RP, CCC, RPE
A good description of codependency is “when a person’s self-esteem rises and falls based on the other person’s mood, tone or experience.” But it is actually much more than that. The person is overly involved in the other person’s needs, wants, problems and issues. In reality, some of the nicest people in the world are codependent, and if not watched, all relationships have the potential to become codependent. Codependency takes healthy emotions and corrupts them. For example, empathy is a positive emotion, but in codependency the empathy rises to a level where there is no division between the two people. Generosity is also a beautiful emotion, but in codependency it turns into control and over enmeshment. In addition, the codependent person often feels excessively guilty for having any need that may create discomfort in the other person, even if the need is healthy and necessary for their emotional well-being.
The undoing of this pattern is crucial to finding one's joy and peace. We unpack this as it relates to one's relationships to others as well as to the relationship with oneself.

Depending on others' approval or a sense of purpose is a very stressful life. It can feel very scary to be alone while having someone close romantically can feel overwhelming. Despite these extremes, you wish for more stability. I have experience helping people discover and build internal structures so they can be themselves and feel safe with others.

Codependency can feel confusing and confounding. We are trying to sort out "who am I and who is the other?" Setting and maintaining boundaries and developing self awareness can be just two responses. The reward of doing this work is a clearer sense of one's self in relation to others.
