Another approach emphasizes identifying attachment patterns and codependent dynamics so clients can set healthier boundaries and improve relationships.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Amanda will discuss goals, try a method for a few sessions, and adjust based on what feels most helpful. The work includes homework between sessions and regular check-ins so progress stays tied to real-life changes.
