Codependency Therapists in Atlanta, GA
I have over 17 years of experience working with people struggling with codependency and trauma.
Do you feel taken advantage of and like no matter what you do, you can't win? Are you a victim of emotional, verbal or physical abuse? Do you love someone who is caught up in the pain of addiction or mental illness? Have you tried everything you can think of but have no idea how to help or what else to do? Are you afraid your partner, spouse, adult child or other loved one will end up in jail, or worse? I get it. Maybe you're just mad. Maybe you're tired of having to handle everything yourself. I get that too.

I love working in the field of mental health! It's extremely rewarding to see someone transition from a place of hopelessness to a place of empowerment and confidence. I believe that we all have the potential to live a full life, but we don't always have the tools to help us access that kind of life. My goal is to help others determine the type of life they want, recognize the obstacles getting in the way, and work with them to navigate through those obstacles.

You’re insightful, emotionally aware, and exhausted from how much mental space relationships take up. You overanalyze their tone, feel unsettled by silence, and spiral when someone pulls back. You crave reassurance, clarity, and consistency, but often silence your needs to avoid conflict or rejection. You want to stop feeling anxious, reactive, and dependent on someone else’s behavior for your sense of calm. What you truly want is to feel secure in yourself, trust yourself, and show up grounded and confident in relationships.

I help individuals and couples redefine the stories shaping their sense of self and their relationships, breaking free from narratives formed by past experiences that limit confidence, connection, and choice. Therapy becomes a space to release what no longer fits and intentionally create new, self-defined and shared narratives rooted in self-trust, clarity, and emotional safety; supporting a self-fulfilling mindset and more expansive ways of living and loving. Let's work together to start rewriting a new narrative.

Maybe, on paper, you’re successful, well-accomplished, and admired, but others don’t see that you are often overwhelmed with imposter syndrome and a general feeling of not being good enough. It could be that you desire healthy relationships, but can’t quite figure out what’s blocking you from having the emotional intimacy that you desire. Perhaps you recognize patterns of trauma in your family and you’re ready to interrupt the patterns. Or, your life may not be in complete crisis, but you want to be sure that you are addressing areas that may be preventing you from living your life to the fullest.

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.
