Codependency Recovery Through Somatic, Relational, and Parts Work
Reclaim your voice, your boundaries, and your sense of self through body-based, trauma-informed therapy that helps you move from people-pleasing to inner peace.
Let Go of People-Pleasing and Come Home to Yourself
Support for healing codependent patterns, setting boundaries, and rebuilding a self that feels whole—without guilt or self-abandonment.
Codependency recovery therapy supports individuals who feel stuck in patterns of people-pleasing, self-abandonment, or over-functioning in relationships. This work helps untangle learned survival strategies—like difficulty setting boundaries, fear of disconnection, or a deep need to be needed—and gently rebuilds a more secure, embodied sense of self. Using somatic therapy, parts work (IFS), and attachment repair, sessions focus on reconnecting to your needs, your voice, and your nervous system’s cues so that connection no longer comes at the cost of yourself.
You are allowed to take up space, speak your truth, and choose yourself—without guilt, without apology, and without losing love.
How We Begin To Heal Codependent Patterns
Codependency isn’t who you are—it’s something you learned to survive.
Maybe you learned to stay small, anticipate others’ needs, or keep the peace at all costs. In therapy, we’ll gently explore where those patterns came from, how they’ve protected you, and what it means to choose yourself without fear of abandonment or rejection.
This work blends somatic therapy, parts work (IFS), and relational healing to support you in coming back to your body’s cues, reconnecting with your boundaries, and reclaiming the self that’s been waiting underneath the overgiving.

What We Can Work On Together
Codependent patterns are rooted in survival—together, we’ll explore how they’ve served you and gently create space for something new.
People-Pleasing & Saying Yes When You Mean No
You may feel responsible for others’ emotions, saying yes to keep the peace even when it costs you. In therapy, we’ll gently explore the fear underneath and practice honoring your “no” without guilt or shutdown.
Guilt Around Boundaries or Taking Up Space
Setting boundaries doesn’t mean you’re selfish—it means you’re human. We’ll work to understand where guilt comes from and support your body in holding boundaries with more safety, confidence, and care.
Self-Abandonment & Loss of Identity in Relationships
When you’ve been taught to prioritize others, it’s easy to lose sight of your own needs, desires, or even your sense of self. Together, we’ll reconnect with the parts of you that were silenced and help you rebuild inner clarity and self-trust.
Fear of Rejection, Conflict, or Being “Too Much”
If you’ve learned that love depends on being easy, quiet, or agreeable, it can feel terrifying to show up fully. In this work, we create space for your truth—messy, emotional, and worthy of being held.
You don’t have to earn your worth by overgiving. You’re allowed to take up space, have needs, and be loved as your full self.
What Healing Can Look Like…
This work isn’t about fixing you—it’s about coming back to yourself.
Healing from codependency means learning how to stay connected to others without disconnecting from yourself. It’s about slowing down, tuning into your body, and giving your inner parts the safety and care they didn’t have before.
Saying no without spiraling into guilt or fear
Naming your needs—and believing they matter
Feeling your emotions without shame or shutdown
Holding boundaries with more ease and less apology
Reclaiming your identity outside of roles, caregiving, or performance
Choosing connection from a place of wholeness—not survival

Imagine
Trusting yourself to make choices without second-guessing or over-explaining
Saying no and feeling grounded, not guilty
Letting go of the need to fix, rescue, or manage everyone else’s emotions
Feeling secure in your relationships—even when conflict arises
Showing up as your full self, without shrinking or self-editing
Finally feeling like you in your own body and life

FAQs
-
Codependency often shows up as people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, or feeling responsible for others’ emotions. If you find yourself abandoning your own needs to keep the peace, or feeling anxious when you're not “needed,” therapy can help you begin untangling those patterns with compassion and care.
-
Codependency recovery therapy creates a safe space to explore where these patterns came from—often rooted in childhood or relational trauma—and how they’ve helped you survive. Through somatic therapy, parts work (IFS), and attachment healing, we work on rebuilding a grounded sense of self, setting boundaries, and relating without self-abandonment.
-
I use an integrative approach that blends Somatic Experiencing®, Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, and relational, trauma-informed care. These methods help your body and nervous system feel safe enough to unlearn old survival patterns and embody new ways of connecting—with others and with yourself.
-
Yes—absolutely. Feeling guilt around boundaries is one of the most common struggles in codependency. In therapy, we explore where that guilt comes from and use body-based tools to help you hold boundaries with more ease, clarity, and self-trust.
-
Often, yes. Codependent patterns frequently develop in response to early relational wounds, emotional neglect, or environments where you had to stay small, helpful, or “easy” to receive love. Therapy can support you in safely working through these experiences and rewriting the internalized beliefs they left behind.
