**NEW THERAPY GROUP NOW FORMING** 

Codependence = low self-esteem, problems setting boundaries,

 inability to meet your own needs & wants,

 difficulty creating a balanced life & reality

*****

        *Have you noticed that the opinions of others are more important to you than your own?
*Are you uncomfortable expressing your true feelings to significant others?
*Do you feel a burdensome sense of responsibility for the actions of others?
*Are you involved with someone who has alcohol and/or drug problems? Someone who belittles or physically harms you?

If you find yourself answering "yes" to the above questions, you may be interested in CONQUERING CODEPENDENCE, a psycho-educational and supportive group.  A new session will begin soon.  This group will be facilitated by Carol R Cann, MA, LCPC, CADC, a psychotherapist and alcohol/drug counselor with over 25 years experience in group settings. The group will be limited to six members, will be closed (no new members after it begins) and will continue for 6 weeks.  Group members will decide whether or not they wish to continue meeting after that.  The 90-minute sessions will meet on Saturday mornings; confidentiality (what is said in the group stays in the group) will be a requirement for all members.  The fee for the group is $30 per person per week. 

Please call or email for further information, answers to your questions, and to reserve your place in the group.

We will explore how codependence operates; how it develops; how early experiences can instill a life-time of inappropriate feelings that lead to problems with behaviors and relationships.  We will also work on ways to begin to change these painful, dysfunctional patterns of thinking, feeling, and acting.
