The Failure of Therapeutic Mending: Overcoming Codependency & Environmental Dependency in Therapy

Baruch Menache's Podcast

In this transformative episode, we dive deep into the failure of therapeutic mending, focusing on why many therapeutic methods fail to address the core emotional challenges of codependency and environmental dependency. Codependency creates an unhealthy emotional reliance on others for validation and stability, while environmental dependency ties a person’s identity and self-worth to external influences like family, relationships, and societal expectations. These deeply rooted emotional patterns often prevent real healing and hinder personal growth.

We break down how these dependencies manifest in therapy, why traditional approaches often miss them, and how they can derail the progress toward emotional independence. This episode offers actionable strategies for breaking free from toxic emotional patterns and finding true emotional healing.
