Codependency
Lisa Vespico-Mull
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, SAP, ICAADC
Codependency can be a normal reaction to dealing with a loved one with substance use disorder. It can also affect multiple relationships apart from addiction and can sometimes be engrained due to upbringing and other factors. I am aware of resources available to help address codependency issues as well such as literature and community programs. Often times, if we feel a lack of control, it is a way to engage but will be destructive to you and your relationships in the long run.

HUGH R STEWART III
Hypnotherapist, Ph.D., ACHt.
Codependency is another specialty of mine in being a people pleaser. If you are looking to find someone to complete you, you probably have codependent qualities. Codependent people find their self esteem through helping others often at ones own expense. Codependency is all about looking outside ourselves for answers/happiness instead of inward. Happiness and all of our answers to our questions lie within if we can become still enough to listen to our intuition. Successful relationships are more interdependent where we both have our lives, interests, friends, family, etc. and intersect with our partners when we are doing something together. Many of my clients have gone to Codependents Anonymous, ACOA, Alanon, etc. These are safe spaces to explore more interdependent and independent ways of being and share our experiences without being judged. There are many great books on codependency. I teach people how to become your own person not needing approval from others and celebrating your interdependence with one another when in relationship.

Karina Suero
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Are you stuck in the pattern of trying to protect your love one by giving in all the time? Are you finding that time again and again you have asked yourself to do it differently and you find that you cannot? Are you aware that you feelings of happiness in life are completely tied to how the other person is doing ? Is your life interrupted? One particular person has a problem? Does your heart skip a beat when the phone rings and you who is calling and you know what’s coming? It can be that your loved one has alcohol problem or a drug problem, or unable to grow up as an independent adult or that you can only be loved by your partner if you are the caregiver. Perhaps you have started feeling resentful about YOU being the one always caring, always protecting, always rescuing. Sometimes you ask yourself where are you in this equation.
I know it feels like there is no other way to live. I assure you that there is and that sharing responsibility in the relationship is freeing and brings space for creativity, playfulness, joy and connection without resentment.
I can help you move in that direction. Call me.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Codependency is a learned pattern of interacting. We can unlearn these patterns, too. First we are going to identify the needs and learn more accurate self talk around self-esteem and self-worth. We will talk about triggers that might cause you to fall back into old patterns and ways to act with love, but not entangled in someone else's distress.

Tiyahna M
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC,LPCMH,NCC,C-DBT
It is not easy doing things "alone" and feels "safer" having someone to depend on, at times the dependency is cathartic but most times it is the cause of many of your issues. With use of CBT, REBT, Socratic questioning and rational optimism we can work together to manage it
