Therapy for Codependency

Are you someone struggling with codependency?

Right now, you may be experiencing:

 

  • Difficulty identifying your own needs or feelings, often prioritizing others’ needs above your own
  • A pattern of attracting or staying in relationships that are one-sided, emotionally draining, or unhealthy
  • An intense fear of abandonment or disapproval, leading you to people-please or avoid conflict
  • Feeling overly responsible for others’ emotions, problems, or choices
  • Low self-esteem, often deriving your sense of worth from being needed by others
  • Difficulty setting or maintaining healthy boundaries
  • A tendency towards controlling behaviors, often disguised as helping or caring
  • Feeling resentful or depleted from constantly giving without receiving adequate support

You’re realizing that your codependency is getting in the way of your life:

  • Your relationships are unbalanced and often leave you feeling unfulfilled or taken for granted
  • You neglect your own well-being, goals, and desires in service of others
  • You struggle to make decisions based on your own needs and preferences
  • You feel trapped in cycles of enabling unhealthy behaviors in others
  • Your emotional health suffers due to excessive worry about others and lack of self-care
  • You feel lost, unsure of who you are outside of your role in relation to others

You’re wondering…

  • Why do I always put others first, even when it hurts me?
  • How can I learn to set boundaries without feeling guilty or selfish?
  • Is it possible to have healthy, balanced relationships?
  • Can I break free from these patterns of people-pleasing and enabling?
  • How is my codependency related to my family background or past experiences?
  • Will I ever feel worthy and capable on my own?

You’re longing for…

  • Healthy, reciprocal relationships based on mutual respect and support.
  • The ability to identify and prioritize your own needs and feelings without guilt.
  • Strong, clear boundaries that protect your emotional and mental well-being.
  • A solid sense of self-worth that isn’t dependent on others’ approval or neediness.
  • Freedom from the compulsion to fix, rescue, or control others.
  • Authentic connection and intimacy, rather than relationships based on obligation or fear.

How we can help you.

At Evergreen Counseling, we understand that codependency often develops as an adaptation to dysfunctional family systems, particularly those involving addiction, mental illness, or emotional neglect. It can be deeply intertwined with attachment wounds and unresolved trauma. Our trauma-informed therapists help you explore the roots of your codependent patterns in a compassionate, non-judgmental way.

What you’re longing for is possible.
