Slipping Into Therapy Codependency — And What Happened When I Had to Stand Alone


Listen Later

What happens when your therapist becomes a crutch instead of a guide? In this episode, Sheila Kazan dives into the often-overlooked topic of therapy codependency—the emotional entanglement that can form when support turns into over-reliance. Through raw and relatable stories from her own experience, Sheila unpacks how different therapists influenced her growth, the fine line between help and dependency, and the deeper work of learning to trust yourself again.
