I help women strengthen self-worth and change patterns of codependency, self-doubt, and losing sight of their own needs and desires.
Maybe you’re tired of second-guessing yourself, worrying about what could go wrong, or repeating patterns that you know aren’t working for you. You want to understand yourself more deeply—not because there’s something wrong with you, but because you know life could feel different. Perhaps you want more confidence, healthier relationships, greater peace, or simply a stronger sense of who you are and what you want. You’re ready to let go of what no longer serves you and create a life that feels more intentional, fulfilling, and authentically yours.

Life can be hard sometimes. Situations, circumstances and relationships can seem to be overwhelming or even impossible to handle. Sometimes we just need someone to talk to, to be a support through the difficult times, to help us sort things out, and to learn more healthy positive ways of overcoming these situations.

Navigating relationships, self-esteem, and the challenges of everyday life can sometimes leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected or unsure of ourselves.

This may stem from generational trauma, lived experiences, or disruptions in early childhood attachment. We’ll work together to explore relational patterns, develop healthy coping skills, increase self-awareness and self-esteem, and build greater confidence in navigating relationships and challenges as you work towards meaningful change.

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.
