With PESI's self-study materials, you can learn at your own speed and from any location.
You see these clients all the time. Preoccupied with others, people with co-dependence issues desperately try to please, manage, or fix those in their closest relationships.
After years of putting their own needs aside these clients become stuck in externally focused self-sacrificing patterns they don’t even recognise. By the time they show up in your office with anxiety, depression, and significant relationship issues they’ve completely lost their true selves.
But knowing what to do with these clients in therapy can be exasperating as again and again they shift the focus of sessions away from themselves and toward others. Their unwillingness to drop down into their own emotions, thoughts, and actions can leave you feeling demoralised and drained as you spin your wheels session after fruitless session. If you’re not careful, you can end up joining the client as they look to solve their own problems by solving the problems of others.
