Therapy for Codependency
in Winter Park, FL
If you've ever felt like you can't be okay unless the people around you are okay, you may be dealing with codependency. It often grows out of childhoods spent in chaotic, addicted, or emotionally unpredictable homes, where being attuned to other people's moods kept you safe.
As an adult, that same wiring can leave you over-functioning in relationships, losing yourself in others, and feeling resentful, exhausted, or anxious when you try to put yourself first.
You might benefit from codependency therapy if you:
-
Feel responsible for managing other people's emotions
-
Struggle to identify what you actually want or feel
-
Stay in relationships long past the point they stop being healthy
-
Find yourself drawn to people who need rescuing or fixing
-
Feel guilty when you set a boundary or say no
-
Lose your sense of self in romantic relationships
-
Grew up in a family with addiction, mental illness, or chronic dysfunction
-
Are exhausted from being everyone's emotional support
How we help. We help you understand the family patterns that shaped how you connect, learn to set boundaries that protect your wellbeing without cutting people off, and rebuild a relationship with yourself that doesn't depend on managing everyone else. You can love people deeply and still have a self.
