New York Psychotherapist for Codependency & Addictive Relationships

Counseling is available for single men and women, and marriage and couple counseling.

If you have not been able to give yourself a nurturing, loving relationship there is a reason.

Many people find it difficult, sometimes impossible, to let go of a relationship which is not satisfying. It is important to take the time in therapy to understand repetitive patterns in relationships. Are there repetitive patterns in choices of partners? Does it feel like something good would be lost even though the relationship seems hurtful?

Often choices of partners are affected by many things out of our awareness. Therapy gives us the opportunity to understand our choices, gain more control of our behavior, and live our life in a more fulfilling manner.

Signs of Codependency

• Being unable to leave a relationship because it is familiar, even though you know it is depriving and hurtful.
• Feeling deserving of love but usually finding people who can't love.
• Feeling the relationship is your "fault" and feeling afraid to express critical, angry feelings. As a result, you are not able to trust your real self to emerge in a relationship.

If you have not been able to give yourself a nurturing, loving relationship there is a reason and there is help. Call me. Don't let life or happiness pass you by.
