Starting Codependency therapy

What is Codependency therapy?

Codependency therapy from our Thriveworks Knoxville therapists helps people reduce and overcome codependent habits, which involve sacrificing one's own needs to meet the needs of others (usually those closest to them). It helps to improve one's well-being as well as the health of their relationships.

How does Codependency therapy work?

Codependency therapy works by helping the individual recognize, understand, and accept codependent patterns — including why and how they might've developed. In addition, it focuses on helping the individual to kick these tendencies and build more balanced relationships that allow them to support others without neglecting their own needs.

Is Codependency therapy conducted in person or online?

Codependency therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does Codependency therapy last?

Codependent counseling can last for a few weeks, months, or longer. It depends on the exact needs of the client as well as the severity of their codependent challenges and other needs or preferences.

Need more help deciding?

Anyone living with a chronic psychological condition will fully appreciate just how debilitating this can be on their everyday life. Codependency and Dependent Personality Disorder are types of psychological conditions which fall under the umbrella term of Anxious Personality Disorders. They are connected with an unhealthy dependency on another person in their life in order for the sufferer to feel validated and able to function. Codependency counseling and therapy for Dependent Personality Disorder may well prove to be beneficial to anyone who believes they are suffering from such a psychological disorder.

Typical Traits to be Aware of

If you are able to recognize any of the following traits in yourself, it may well be the case that codependency counseling will be of benefit to you:

  • Do you depend on others for your own emotional wellbeing?
  • Do you live to serve the needs of others to an unhealthy extent?
  • Do you find that you need excessive reassurance from another person in order to get through everyday life?
  • Are you submissive toward another person to an extent that may be unnatural?
  • Do you find yourself blaming the person you are dependent on for all the negative aspects of your life?

If you feel that you are able to resonate with any of the bullet-points above, there is a possibility that therapy for a Dependent Personality Disorder might prove to be the answer for you.

Identifying that You Need Help

As with all psychological disorders, it is important to remember that people with conditions such as Codependency and Dependent Personality Disorder may not necessarily even know that there is a problem in the first place. After all, it is most likely that they have been living with the condition for their entire lives and such types of behavior may seem completely acceptable and ‘normal’ to them.

We fully appreciate just how difficult that first step can be when it comes to seeking therapy for Codependency and Dependent Personality Disorder. With this in mind, if you do feel there is a possible problem at play here, feel free to get in contact with us today to schedule that all-important first session.

I saw Justin for assistance with OCD. He showed me how to look at things in a way that did not allow my OCD to take over. I will would highly recommend him.

I have been taking my 7 year old grandson to see Justin. He had horrible anxiety. It saddened us to see how bad it was. He had developed tics. Justin was absolutely wonderful with him. He has overcome most of his fears and tics have went away. I would highly recommend Justin.

Going to Thriveworks for the past year and a half has been the most rewarding counseling experience I’ve had. Seeing Lindsey has had the single biggest impact on my emotional and mental health, especially in healing from past childhood abuse and trauma, and ongoing PTSD. Out of multiple counselors in two states, Lindsey Chandler is by far the one with whom I’ve felt the most accepted, supported, and encouraged by. I am grateful for the Thriveworks space, as it is not at all clinical nor intimidating, but entirely warn and welcoming. It is nearly a scent-free environment, which is vital for the comfort of any highly sensitive persons. I choose to drive an hour from home each visit specifically to stay loyal to a place where I finally feel safe and valued—where in the past commuting five minutes from home to work with a therapist felt like a chore and an ordeal—and I will continue to do so as I work further toward a healthier me.

My son saw “Mrs. Amanda” as he affectionately called her shortly after my marriage ended in a high conflict divorce. My son was 6 years old at the time, so it was difficult for him to process his feelings without knowing how to communicate with us. Amanda Gilliam was always there to listen and provide outlets for him to speak openly about his feelings in a way that could be understood. She is top knotch in my book and I would highly recommend her as a professional!

I was in sessions with Justin for about a year and highly recommend him. He has a deep grasp of psychology that he is constantly refreshing and renewing, and he was able to help me a lot in understanding what was driving the emotions and feelings of myself and close family members. He was a great help.
