ABOUT THE COURSE

Why "Getting Over the Need to be Needed"?

"Many of us build our sense of self-worth on being needed by others. This creates codependent relationships, emotional burnout, and a disconnection from our authentic selves. This course is designed to help you break this cycle."

With over a decade of experience in helping people break free from codependent relationships, I've developed a unique approach that combines practical psychology, mindfulness techniques, and actionable strategies.

My journey began when I had to overcome my own struggles with people-pleasing and constantly putting others' needs before my own. Through years of research, training, and personal growth, I discovered the key elements that help people reclaim their independence and build healthier relationships.

In this course, I'll share all the insights and practical tools that have helped thousands of my clients transform their lives and find freedom from the exhausting cycle of codependency.

"My mission is to help you discover your authentic self and build a life defined by your own choices and desires—not by the expectations or needs of others."
