Codependency Therapy | MA, FL & VT

What are signs of codependency?
Signs include difficulty saying no, feeling responsible for others' emotions, losing your sense of self in relationships, fear of abandonment, and consistently prioritizing others' needs over your own.

How do I stop being a people pleaser?
Some examples, therapy can help you understand what's driving people-pleasing patterns, explore boundaries, and develop strategies for prioritizing your own needs without guilt.

Can therapy help with codependency?
Yes. To name a few ways, therapy provides a space to explore codependent patterns, understand what's driving them, and work toward healthier relationships where you don't have to lose yourself. You get to decide what your goals are and what's most important to you.

You're exhausted from putting everyone else first. Managing their emotions, fixing their problems, keeping the peace—it's left you depleted and wondering who you even are anymore. Whether it's with romantic partners, family members, friends, or even coworkers—codependency shows up in all kinds of relationships.

• Your worth = what you give - You feel valuable only when you're helping or fixing
• Lost sense of self - Your identity is so wrapped up in others, you don't know what YOU want
• Can't say no - Setting boundaries feels impossible, even when you're drowning
• Managing their emotions - You're responsible for everyone's happiness but your own
• Navigating a partner's substance use - You find yourself managing their drinking, making excuses, or feeling responsible for their recovery while neglecting your own needs
• Fear of abandonment - You accept harmful behavior because being alone feels worse
• Resentment building - You give and give, but feel unseen and unappreciated

The truth? You don't have to figure this out alone.

• Identifying what YOU need and want (separate from others)
• Exploring boundaries and what they might look like for you
• Understanding patterns of over-functioning and caretaking
• Processing anxiety around others' emotions
• What healthy relationships could feel like

You deserve relationships where you can show up as yourself.

You've been carrying this alone long enough. Don't wait to get the help you need.
