Codependency
Tracey Nguyen
Counsellor/Therapist, RN, MN
For individuals who struggle with codependency, our existence is based on getting other peoples approval and and caring a lot about what other people think to the point you may abandon your needs constantly to please others in relationships. This may feel natural, like you are giving, helping and saving but this doesn't come without expectation. Codependent behaviour when not met with what we want back, may breed a lot of resentment, anger and disappointment. Feeling drained, leaking our power and stressing because of what others think can be a consequence. We work together to heal the part of you that keeps leaving yourself, we learn to deeply meet our own emotional needs so we can have the courage to build some healthy boundaries in our relationships. We learn to say no when we are afraid to and trusting that it's okay to not meet other people's needs based on their emotional reactions. We learn to not get controlled by others upset emotions and anger. We learn to honour what we need for ourselves.

Elena Serra
Therapist, Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist (RP-Q)
While interdependence can be healthy, many partners have an overreliance on one another for needs and self-esteem. If you are ready to feel more comfortable standing on your own two feet and feeling safer and more confident in your relationships, or maintain a sense of identity in relationships, I would like to help.

Jess Erb
Registered Psychotherapist, DPsychotherapy
Working with adults who are in relationships often means addressing the codependency between partners. Together with clients I look at family history, relationship history and how clients interact in other relationships. Together we can also work on the self - including building self-esteem and independence in order to break the co-dependence cycle.

MindfulWe Holistic Psychotherapy & Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, IMD (candidate)
Codependency is a relationship type, and is often wonderful until it's not. When it's not, boundaries come in. Boundaries are essential to all relationships because it allows you to form the ideal relationship you want. Understanding what the codependent relationship was providing you with allows an understanding and compassion to intentionally take steps towards your ideal behaviors and ways of relating.

Joshua Lewis
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CT
It is possible to have a healthy, mutually satisfying relationship with your partner that holds room and respect for all the unique and curious ways that you each function as separate individuals within a supportive bond. We will take time to understand the ways in which we form relationships with others and how these, primarily unconscious and nonverbal, patterns get laid down early in life and are often transmitted across generations. My approach is to work from an attachment-oriented psychotherapy lens that takes into account the here/now relational experience of the therapeutic relationship between us.

Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, RCT, RCC, CCC, ATR-P
At Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy, we specialize in supporting individuals struggling with codependency issues. Codependency is a complex and challenging pattern of behavior that often involves placing excessive focus on others' needs while neglecting one's own emotional well-being and boundaries. Our therapeutic approach is designed to help individuals break free from codependent patterns, cultivate self-awareness, and foster healthier relationships with themselves and others.
Through a relational lens, we explore the underlying beliefs and behaviors that contribute to codependency, focusing on building self-esteem, assertiveness, and self-care practices. Our therapists create a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to examine their relational dynamics, set boundaries, and develop a deeper understanding of their own needs and values.
Using somatic interventions, we help clients reconnect with their bodies and emotions, facilitating a deeper sense of self-awareness and grounding. By incorporating mindfulness techniques and body-centered practices, we support individuals in developing a greater sense of agency, presence, and resilience in their relationships.
Our goal is to empower individuals to cultivate healthy boundaries, enhance self-esteem, and nurture a balanced sense of self-reliance and interdependence. Through personalized therapeutic interventions and compassionate support, we guide clients on a transformative journey towards breaking free from codependency, fostering self-compassion, and reclaiming their autonomy and emotional well-being.
At Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy, we are dedicated to providing a supportive and empowering space where individuals can explore and heal from codependency, fostering growth, authenticity, and self-empowerment in their relationships and personal lives.
