Codependency
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.

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.

Codependency
Dr. Maria Canyon
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Patterns of codependency develop for complex reasons (e.g. personality traits, childhood environments) and require a thorough multimodal approach to treatment. Codependency develops as a unconscious and valid protective response to relational dynamics. Overtime you may have started to recognize the harmful effects this tendency, that likely protected you during childhood, is having on you and your current relationships. Together we can explore the unconscious patterning that has led to this and work to implement healthy boundaries and behaviors. While doing this, we will hold space for the inevitable emotions that arise when setting new patterns into place. Overtime, my hope is that you will be able to integrate your compassion for others into an empowered self, meeting your own needs as well as others.

Stephanie Ennen
Therapist, LPC,LCPC, LMHC
I specialize in helping individuals overcome codependency—an emotional and behavioral condition that can create unhealthy patterns in relationships. If you find yourself excessively reliant on others for your self-worth, feeling responsible for others' feelings, or struggling to establish boundaries, you are not alone, and I am here to support you.
In our sessions, we will explore the roots of your codependent behaviors and how they impact your relationships and emotional well-being. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we will work to identify and challenge negative thought patterns that contribute to codependency, helping you cultivate a healthier sense of self and improve your self-esteem.
I also incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques to help you develop essential skills in emotional regulation, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness. These skills can empower you to establish healthy boundaries and foster more balanced, fulfilling relationships.
A key aspect of my approach is psychoeducation. By understanding the dynamics of codependency, you can gain valuable insights into your behaviors and develop strategies for change. We will work together to create a personalized plan that emphasizes self-care, assertiveness, and self-discovery.
My goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, learn to prioritize your own needs, and build healthier, more satisfying connections with others. Together, we can work towards breaking the cycle of codependency and fostering a stronger sense of autonomy and well-being.
