CCF Counseling Center

Speak your piece in peace.. Be confident in your value and do not allow yourself to be bullied.. Speak your piece from a place of love and not malicious intent or retaliation. It can't be peace at any cost... Because it does cost.. It Sparks a war within..

Healthy relationships must include trust, loyalty, and mutuality.

When we allow ourselves to see the other for who they are and not for who we want them to be or who we think they are, we can begin to have healthy relationships.

You may be in a codependent relationship if you find yourself: Attempting to fix your partner’s situation Attempting to smooth out your partner’s life or act as a buffer to the consequences of their choices Attempting to manage or control your partner’s emotions Focusing on your partner’s needs at your expense... Attempting to manage how your partner appears to others (hiding behaviors, lying for them, etc.) Stuffing your needs and emotions so that you do not anger, worry, or upset your partner Ignoring self-care (friendships, activities, hobbies, etc.) to insure your partner is cared for.

If you consistently help others at your own expense (and often feel angry or taken advantage of), have poor boundaries, feel the need to please others to be liked or accepted, have difficulty knowing or expressing what you need, are attracted to people with problems, you may have codependent tendencies.

Codependency is a relationship where one person enables the self-destructive or dysfunctional behavior of their loved one.

Did you know that January is National Codependency Awareness Month?

The big lie: It’s my job to keep everyone happy. The truth: We are each responsible for our own emotional regulation; I cannot make someone else happy.

Sometimes the hardest part is starting! Be scared but do it anyway!

What are you thankful for today? We'd love to know!

There is no truth in "You complete me."

And so begins anxiety, anger, depression...

Pick one from each group every day.

Today and everyday. Tag someone below who needs that reminder.

Don’t blame yourself for what was not in your control. What you can control is how you choose to heal. Your past does NOT to define your present or future

There is hope! Through our Counseling Center at CCF, we work with men, women, children, adolescents, singles, couples & families.

Impactful sentence heard in my meeting this morning. It was begging to be a meme. Thank you Lynne Kennedy.

At our shoppe we have a list of rules written on the wall! Rule #4 is "Don't be stupid!" As parents and business owners Matt and I jokingly and seriously refe...r to Rule #4 a lot! (cause teenagers! ) I saw this list of rules and really liked it! Again Rule #4 is one of my favorites! I think we will be adding these to our wall! Which rule do you like? #healthyforlife #coaching

A bank teller will ask you which account you would like your deposit to go. Have you considered which account you will make your deposit? You can contribute to the fears and darkness of the world or the hope of a bright and brilliant world. #owlsandarrows #toniimsen

I think all of us have learned this lesson the hard way at some point.. cultivate boundaries. A boundary is not a wall a boundary implies flexibility however a ...boundary does not allow your heart to rule your mind it is also not an enabler so a boundary protects you from becoming codependent.. never ever ever doubt your own self worth.. you are uniquely beautiful beyond measure be with somebody that appreciates that!!!
