Co-Dependents Anonymous is a fellowship of people whose common purpose is to develop healthy relationships. The only requirement for membership is a desire for healthy and loving relationships. We gather together to support and share with each other in a journey of self-discovery -- learning to love the self. Living the program allows each of us to become increasingly honest with ourselves about our personal histories and our own behaviors. * We rely on the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions for knowledge and wisdom. These are the principles of our program and guides to developing honest and fulfilling relationships with ourselves and others. By actively working the program of Co-Dependents Anonymous, we can each realize a new joy, acceptance and serenity in our lives. If you are new to the group and plan to attend in person, please sign up by selecting this "treatment" option that has zero cost involved. * The meeting has a video option as well as attending in person. Please book yourself in online ONLY if you plan to attend via video. Thank you!

Ongoing counselling appointments offer a consistent space to continue exploring your experiences, concerns, and goals over time. Sessions are guided by what feels most important to you and may include deepening understanding, building skills, processing experiences, and noticing patterns, strengths, and shifts. Together, we work at a pace that honours your needs, values, and capacity, with ongoing attention to safety, consent, and collaboration. Counselling is flexible and responsive, evolving as your life and priorities change.

An initial counselling appointment is a supportive first meeting where we begin to explore what has brought you to counselling and what you’re hoping for. We’ll talk about your concerns, strengths, and supports at a pace that feels comfortable for you. This session is also a chance for you to ask questions, learn about my approach, and see whether working together feels like a good fit. We’ll review consent, confidentiality, and next steps, with care and respect for your autonomy.
