Codependency Counselling in Gravesend
Welcome, I’m Philippa. I’m a neurodivergent therapist and coach specialising in ADHD, AuDHD and Autism in adults. People who reach out to me have spent a lifetime masking, trying to shrink or hide themselves, and now feel increasingly overwhelmed inside. You had no language for your differences, and now you find yourself burnt out, stuck, or unsure how to keep going the way you have been. I get it, I’ve been there! So, I offer a reflective, trauma‑informed space where we pause, notice what’s happening, and explore new ways of relating to yourself, your relationships, and the world around you.

Deciding to attend therapy is a difficult decision. It is important that you find a therapist with whom you can feel comfortable, I aim to provide you with that experience. I believe there is no position or age from which positive change cannot be made and will support you in the process. Alternatively, if you have a goal that you wish to achieve, either personally or professionally, it is vital you find someone who can bring energy, enthusiasm and pragmatism to your sessions. I also have experience in the corporate space and provide seminars on a number of issues and coaching for groups.

Hi, I'm Fiona. Welcome to my profile. I am an experienced, and qualified counsellor who loves her job. I understand how difficult it is to approach counselling, and know how daunting, scary and anxiety provoking it can be to choose the "right counsellor for you". Perhaps your daily life leaves you confused enough, without having to make yet another decision. Perhaps your goal is to understand yourself more fully, or learn ways of accepting past experiences, and finding a more relaxed, and happier way to move forward. If you are looking for someone patient, warm and non judgemental, I'd really like to be that person to help you.

You've done years of therapy. You understand your patterns, can explain exactly why you react the way you do. You know why your chest tightens when someone's mood shifts, why you say yes when you mean no, why you choose people who confirm your fears. But understanding hasn't created lasting change. You're still doing it. That's bc insight lives in your mind, but trauma is held in your nervous system, your tissues, your cells. The anxiety in your stomach isn't a thought you can reframe. The shutdown when someone gets close isn't a boundary you chose. Those are your body's responses to old survival patterns that never got completed.

What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
