I understand that hurt, resentments and family dysfunction make life challenging. Working with adults of all ages, I help clients identify triggers that lead to anxiety, depression and mood instability. Together, we develop skills and strategies that create changes in behavior and improve relationships. Some of my clients come to heal complicated grief, abuse, or PTSD. Along with an accepting relationship, I approach therapy using CBT (reframing thoughts & perspective), DBT (responding vs. reacting using your wise mind), Gestalt Therapy (role playing), Internal Family Systems (healing wounded parts) and expressive therapies.

As a therapist, I find it extremely important to build a strong alliance with each of my unique clients. Each person engages in therapy at their own pace which often requires a strong foundation of trust. I work with each client to develop the trust and sense of safety needed to be able to be open minded to all that therapy has to offer. Regardless of what is bringing you to therapy, we can explore it together. I can offer new perspectives and help you get to where you want to be. Clients often come to me for a variety of reasons but most often for anxiety disorders, interpersonal challenges, low self-esteem and depression.

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.
