You want a healthy, fun relationship, with a sense of safety and security, with healthy boundaries, connection, and where you can be yourself. But your relationship feels like it is falling apart, or at the very least it feels like there are times it is a struggle and hurtful. There are often misunderstandings and you feel a gulf between you. You don't want to feel like roommates or snap at one another, and long for connection that feels happy and enjoyable. You're hoping that in therapy you two can learn to share thoughts, needs and ideas in a way that unites you instead of turning into a fight or disagreement.

You may be experiencing a sense of disconnection due to chronic stress or living in survival mode. Unacknowledged or unprocessed experiences with trauma, injustice, grief, loss, and neglect, can lead to emotional, mental, and physical overwhelm. This can show up as overfunctioning, hypervigilance, fatigue, dysregulation, burn out, numbing, people-pleasing, perfectionism, overthinking, hyper-independence, procrastination, and negative self-talk. Life doesn't have to feel this way. Together, we'll explore what you're carrying and cultivate safety, connection, and resilience so you can feel more grounded in your mind, body, and spirit.

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.
