I consider it a great honor to walk with you in your journey. I approach therapy and counseling through a trauma-informed, attachment based lens. Prior to pursuing a career in counseling, I spent 25 years in the field of physical therapy working with those suffering from physical pain. This previous experience in working with those suffering physically has given me insight into how our emotional and physical well-being are two sides of the same coin. Because of this experience, I strive to approach counseling from a holistic perspective paying close attention to the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of each person.

Absolutely, counseling is a great tool for when problems do arise, but it can be used to keep the good going and maybe even spring forward to great. We are naturally talented at seeing problems. I want to help you to be reprogrammed to see what is going well and then to do more of that in your life. Let me know when you would like to get together to build from wherever you may currently find yourself.

I read this simple sentence several years ago: You have survived 100% of your worst days. It’s my go-to reminder that we are all built for survival. I believe each individual holds within them a unique set of strengths and skills to help navigate life and all its challenges. During times of change, stress, or crisis, we often feel unable to access and use the tools that could help us move forward. Issues like depression or anxiety can leave us feeling powerless. My passion is helping people of all ages and backgrounds discover and utilize the power deep within them so they can achieve their goals.

Adverse experiences in early life, such as trauma, neglect, or abuse, can have long-lasting effects on emotional and social development. These experiences can impact an individual’s ability to form healthy relationships in adulthood. Many adults who have faced such challenges may struggle with trust, intimacy, or communication in their relationships. Unresolved feelings from past experiences can lead to patterns of behavior that hinder relationship-building, such as fear of abandonment, heightened anxiety in social situations, or difficulty expressing emotions.

Hi! I'm Kim Neundorfer, a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Georgia. I work with adult clients throughout Georgia via telehealth. My therapeutic approach is, first and foremost, client-centered, as there is no one-size-fits-all path to healing. I often work from a family systems perspective, as none of us live in a vacuum, and our families, friends, partners, and colleagues shape who we are. I see people as not just what they show on the outside, but as an ever-growing accumulation of internal and external experiences.

Have you been told you have PTSD? Or, do you have anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or negative self-talk that all started with a traumatic event(s)? If so, you have come to the right place. People with trauma often find themselves spending countless hours in therapy but not getting lasting relief. That is because not every therapist is specially trained to treat trauma, and not every therapy intervention is able to access the part of the brain where traumatic memories live.

Codependency Therapists
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.
