HOW TO DEAL WITH COUNTER-DEPENDENCY
Option 1 : See a psychologist
Over the course of several sessions, together with a therapist you will explore the underlying fears of intimacy, develop healthier relationship patterns, and improve communication skills in order to build closer relationships while maintaining personal boundaries.
You might need to try different therapists before you will find the one you feel comfortable with, and costs can add up. But it’s definitely worth it.

Option 2 : Start self-therapy
Self-therapy is an alternative approach which can yield comparable results to classic therapy, but it’s best suited for those who have the motivation and commitment to embark on a self-help journey.
It consists of a program created by professional psychologists that utilizes a systematic therapeutic approach to integrate effective strategies into your everyday life.
It’s cost-effective and proven to work.
OUR PROGRAM
«Counter-dependency» is a 14-day self-therapy course designed for individuals grappling with counter-dependency, characterized by an aversion to emotional closeness and a fear of dependency in relationships. It integrates a variety of treatment methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Gestalt therapy, and mind-body exercises.
WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM THE COURSE
The Counter-dependency course offers insights into understanding and overcoming counter-dependency, fostering emotional intimacy, and building healthier relationships. Each lesson will require just 15-20 minutes of your time. Through a step-by-step approach, you will learn to identify counter-dependent behaviors, improve self-care, and develop techniques for establishing meaningful connections.
During the course, we’ll cover topics such as:
- Understanding Counter-Dependency: Exploring the concept, symptoms, and manifestations.
- Recognizing Love Avoidance: Identifying behaviors of emotional distancing and unavailability.
- Identifying Signs in Relationships: Noticing changes in attention, lack of emotional intimacy, prioritization of other activities, and difficulties in expressing feelings.
- Overcoming Defensive Mechanisms: Strategies to address denial, anger, and defensiveness that hinder emotional closeness.
- Self-Care Focus: Emphasizing the importance of personal well-being in overcoming counter-dependency.
- Building Relationships: Practical techniques for fostering emotional intimacy and connection despite counter-dependency tendencies.

I've always prided myself on being independent, but this course revealed how my counter-dependency was a barrier to true connection. Learning to embrace vulnerability and seek support has been incredibly rewarding.

This course helped my understand why my boyfriend never seemed to be emotionally available. It turns out, he is a counter-dependent person. The practical exercises have been invaluable and now I can try to change these patterns. And I feel better about myself too.
