This is an introduction to my theory of understanding and healing codependency patterns. Codependency is a pattern of maladaptive and dysfunctional behaviors that dramatically affects people's lives at various levels: 1) their relationship with themselves, 2) their relationship with others, and 3) their ability to self-actualize (or reach their highest potential in life). As a psychotherapist, I have helped hundreds of clients heal their lives radically by viewing their issues through the lens of codependency. It was what made all the difference in my life, as well. Through this podcast, I will begin to delineate my theory of codependency, which will help the listener come to know and love themselves radically, as well as to understand their purpose for being alive.
