Codependency Therapy
Codependency is a way of relating to ourselves and others which is dysfunctional. It is repeating the dysfunctional patterns of how we related with our caregivers, and all of our relationships, including the way we relate to ourselves. Codependency means that your thoughts, feelings, wants, and needs depend on and are influenced by others’ thoughts, feelings, wants, needs. Codependency is a symptom or warning that the things you are doing in your life are harmful to you and can ultimately harm you emotionally, spiritually, and/or physically.
Codependents are usually in relationships that are painful, abusive, controlling and fear-based. The primary fear that all codependents face is the fear of being abandoned and left alone. Once alone, they will feel all of the painful emotions they avoided in these relationships. They use relationships to avoid their pain, much like an addict using substances to avoid theirs. Codependents will get their worth and esteem from being in relationship with another human being so to lose that means to completely lose themselves.
In order to begin to heal, one must identify the pattern of relating to other human beings in order to get their needs met. As with trauma, Harmony Heals provides a safe space where you can begin to heal these relationships through the many services that we provide such as:
