New Evolution in Codependency Treatment
Awakening Hope is the outcome of over 20 years of experience as a licensed therapist and college instructor combined with a devastating personal loss. Extensive knowledge and training in relationships didn't protect Mary from her own relationship mistake, and she was catapulted by pain into the research and development of a program to heal long-standing unhealthy relationship patterns in her life, and the lives of those she treats and teaches.
Awakening Hope explores the developmental attachment issues that lay the foundation for codependency; the anxious and avoidant behavioral patterns we develop in response; and the adrenal system damage accrued through years of hyper-arousal of a fight, flight, or flee response to anticipated broken attachments. Mary incorporates research, personal observation, case vignettes, and ultimately offers a plan for healing and relapse prevention.
