Codependent No More

Melody Beattie has penned a useful guide for get-to freedom from codependency in Codependent No More: How to Stop Controlling, People Pleasing, Overgeneralizing, and More. Using stories of herself and her clients as well as the principles of Therapy, Beattie educates the reader on the reasons for the specific actions, who helps establish limits, and indeed regain control. I concur with the author, that this book is empowering and provides functional approaches for healing enabling individuals obtain freedom from emotional pain and form healthier relationships.
