The truth is that it is very difficult to find a competent Co-dependency Therapist. Someone trained in forming insightful-oriented therapy.
We in recovery need to develop and appreciate the value of letting feelings go, emerge and flow, and maintain a realistic view of willpower. Very useful tools for maturity and self reliance.
I have seen co-dependent A.A.members just follow each other around and recreate the phase-sociological patterns that they became chemical dependents out of, namely their family group.
We need therapists trained in both chemical dependence and psychodynamic traditions.
As long as meditation quiets their anxiety and they become satisfied with saying," HI my name is Holman and I'm an alcoholic", for attention, they are not experiencing their usual patterns, ie: distancing themselves from their personal needs in order to diminish their personal needs; thus diminishing their anxiety.
Co- dependency in stages one and two from chemical dependence can be very similar to borderline personality disorders.It is apparently true that some clients are border line personality disorders persons however try do keep on improving when theycan be in a structured environment. For them the goal of therapy is to establish a strong connection to a structured setting giving them a long term resource.
The best part of treatment with co-dependency is that those who initially appear borderline will quickly appear much less so as soon as the most active phase of their disease has passed.
When at last the dysfunction of a personality disorder is no longer present, clients with co-dependency traits can make excellent candidates for insight oriented therapy.
As a drug counsellor I used to say to my staff many times, "I wish I had early child care training",
To help me understand and deal with the primitive emotions intruding into an adults life. One thing for sure is that a person will not form a therapeutic alliance with anyone who is unable to validate the hard won progress they have already made. The validations of accomplishment will be a need that is not negotiable in a recovered co-dependents lifestyle.
