About this episode

Codependency is one of those "buzzwords" that can often be weaponized or overused. What does it really mean, and how can we recognize it?

In the fifth episode of our miniseries titled "Boundaries Boot Camp," counselor Jim Cress will teach you to recognize signs of codependency so you can adjust your own expectations and work toward seeing progress with your relationships.
