This week, I’m sitting down with Psychotherapist and Trauma/Addictions Specialist Diane Young, to discuss the impact of childhood trauma and how this often leads to the development of codependent traits in adulthood.Codependency is very similar to other process addictions such as gambling or eating disorders, and often develops as a result of experiencing trauma throughout childhood. In this week’s episode, Diane explains the characteristics of a codependent along with outlining Pia Mellody’s Developmental Model of Immaturity, which details the basic needs of a child and what happens when these needs are not met.To hear more from Diane you can find her here: Diane Young WebsiteDiane's LinkedInDiane's Instagram For more information about South Pacific Private you can head to the website here.To follow Ash on IG: @ashbutterssRead Ash's recent blog on Codependency here.
