Living with people-pleasing tendencies and codependency patterns can feel like you're constantly putting everyone else's needs before your own, leaving you emotionally drained and disconnected from your authentic self. If you find yourself unable to say no, constantly seeking approval, avoiding conflict at all costs, or feeling responsible for others' emotions, you're experiencing common symptoms of people-pleasing behavior. This pattern often stems from early relationships and can impact your self-esteem, boundary setting, relationship dynamics, and overall emotional wellbeing. Many people pleasers report feeling anxious in relationships, struggling with perfectionism, and experiencing chronic stress from trying to maintain harmony at their own expense.

​

Through insight-oriented psychotherapy and a person-centered approach, we'll work together to understand the root causes of your people-pleasing patterns and gradually develop a stronger sense of self. Therapy for codependency and people-pleasing provides a supportive space to explore your authentic needs and feelings, learn healthy boundary setting techniques, and develop self-advocacy skills. Our work focuses on helping you reconnect with your own values and desires. Many clients who seek therapy for people-pleasing report improved relationships, reduced anxiety, greater self-confidence, and the ability to create meaningful connections while maintaining their own identity and emotional well-being.
