Codependency Therapy in California & Colorado
Online Psychotherapy for Adults Healing from Trauma, Complex PTSD, and Sexual Assault
You give and give — and still feel empty.
You’ve spent years taking care of others, smoothing over conflict, and managing everyone’s emotions. You’re reliable, empathetic, and fiercely loyal — but you wonder who you are when you’re not serving someone else.
Maybe you struggle to say no, even when your body says yes. You put others’ needs ahead of your own, then feel resentful, exhausted, or invisible. Boundaries feel fuzzy or impossible.
You’re not alone. Codependency is common — and often misunderstood. It’s not just about your relationships with others. It’s about how you relate to yourself.
What Codependency Therapy Can Help With
Codependency therapy can help you recognize and shift the unconscious patterns that keep you stuck — including deep-rooted beliefs about worth, safety, and love.
Together, we’ll explore how your family of origin, early attachment experiences, and relational history have shaped the way you show up in relationships today.
Therapy helps you:
Set and hold boundaries without guilt
Tune in to your own feelings and needs
Reduce resentment, shame, and anxiety
Build a more solid, loving relationship with yourself
My Approach to Codependency Therapy
I offer depth-oriented psychotherapy rooted in modern psychoanalysis, contemplative psychotherapy, and DBT.
That means we work relationally and slowly. We’ll pay attention to unconscious emotional patterns and the real-time experiences that show up between us in session.
You won’t be rushed or pathologized. Instead, you’ll be met with curiosity, respect, and support as you learn to navigate the complex terrain of boundaries, self-worth, and emotional regulation.

Codependency Therapy FAQ
-
Codependency is a relational pattern where you put other people’s needs above your own — often at the cost of your well-being. It can involve people-pleasing, poor boundaries, approval-seeking, or difficulty knowing what you want or need.
-
If you often feel responsible for others’ emotions, have trouble saying no, feel guilt when prioritizing yourself, or notice you disappear in relationships — codependent patterns may be at play.
-
Yes. Therapy helps uncover the emotional roots of codependency and gives you space to practice new patterns — including boundary-setting, self-trust, and self-compassion.
-
It depends on your goals and life circumstances. Many people benefit from weekly therapy over several months to a year. This work can be deep — and deeply rewarding.
-
I use a depth-oriented approach that integrates modern psychoanalysis, contemplative psychotherapy, and DBT. We’ll look at the emotional history behind your current struggles while also building tools for regulation and change.
-
No. Caring and empathy are healthy and human. Codependency becomes an issue when caring for others consistently overrides your own needs, boundaries, and health.
-
Often, yes. It can overlap with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship struggles. Addressing codependency can help improve your overall emotional well-being.
-
No. Codependent patterns show up everywhere — in friendships, family dynamics, work, and how you treat yourself. You can do this work whether you’re single or partnered.
