Codependency & People Pleasing
One amazing date turns into a whirlwind romance. You’re so lost in your new love that you neglect your friendships and loved ones. Before you know it, you can’t make decisions without polling others. You’re not sure what you like, what you think, or even how you feel.
And then it hits you – you’ve lost yourself in this relationship.
It always happens the same way. You bend over backwards to make others happy even when your plate is full. Because the word “no” is not in your vocabulary (even when it should be). Instead, you’re left frustrated, angry, and resentful. You wonder:
What about my needs?
Would they do the same for me?
Would they still be in my life if I didn’t go along to get along?
Why is it so hard just to be myself?
All you want is a forever partner and #rideordie friends, but your current relationships feel one-sided and unsatisfying.

Amazing and very helpful. Office staff is friendly and efficient. As a physician myself, I was very satisfied with Dr. Martinez-Mesa's professionalism and easy manner. He made therapy feel like a weekly deep conversation with a wise friend. He understood where I was coming from. I highly recommend him if you're feeling stressed/burned out by workplace demands.

Dr. Joyce is amazing. She's helped me so much with my OCD and anxiety, both got really bad since COVID started. I've been to other therapists before with limited results, but Joyce is the real deal. Also the office staff is helpful and they made the whole process smooth from the start.

Although I wasn't able to work with Envision due to being located in a different state, their staff took the time to really support me in finding great centers local to where I live and provide me with tips on how to find the best psychiatrists. Had they been local to where I live, I would have loved to work with them! Highly recommended, they are fantastic and very informative :)

El Dr. Martínez le hizo una evaluación de inmigración a mi mama para el examen de ciudadanía el año pasado. Era la segunda vez porque el primer psicólogo al que fuimos solo escribió una carta de 1 página y ella fue rechazada. Esta vez todo salió bien y ¡mi madre es ciudadana ahora! Todo el proceso fue rápido y fácil. Este es un equipo de psicólogos muy honesto y profesional. Los recomiendo con toda confianza. ¡Gracias de nuevo!

I needed a new psychoeducational testing because the other doctor I went to did it wrong and it was rejected. That's how I found Dr. Martinez! When I called, the office staff was very nice and explained I would need to speak with the doctor directly for my special situation. I'd called so many places, left messages, but no one called me back. I was so surprised to get a call back from the doctor HERSELF at 7pm same day! She was so nice, helpful, and honest about what she could/couldn't do and how long it would take. Long story short, she re-did my testing and knew exactly what to do (not like the other doctor) and her report was accepted without issues so I was able to take my grad school entrance exam with accommodations. I wish I had found Dr. Martinez right from the start and not wasted $$$$ on that first test. She's the best!

Simply put, Dr. Martinez is awesome. She is compassionate and helps you deal with the real issues you might be struggling with, not just the symptoms. She is very easy to talk to and gives you a safe space to open up in. Dr. Martinez is extremely empathetic.

Her empathy is a beautiful trait and her willingness to try different approaches to get you to your “aha” moment is a true testament to her caring professionalism. LOVE her!

The thing that’s always kept me coming back to Dr. Martinez is her ability to tailor her counseling. I’ve never once felt like she’s thought, “Oh, it’s another case of this, therefore the textbook next steps are this.” She takes time to listen, get some background, and then tailor a plan to improve based on the whole picture. There’s a chance she might tell you something you don’t want to hear, but need to. And I’ve appreciated that, as I’ve also seen therapists that are concerned with you “liking” them more than being focused on the hard truths. Dr. Martinez has helped me through some troubling times, and while I feel I’m in a better spot now, if that changes, she’s my first call.

Are you a smart, driven perfectionist who wants a counselor who "gets it," can keep up with you intellectually, AND who knows how to help you silence that incessant, negative, annoying inner critic that stops you from being you? If you want solutions for your anxiety and are turned off by psycho-fluff and passive therapists who don't remember you or your situation from session to session, you owe it to yourself to give Dr. Martinez a call. She's amazing.

Dr. Erika Martinez is awesome, she has a passion for working with high-achieving professionals who feel they are not 100% fulfilled. Whether it’s a relationship related, family, work, or just life, she will help you understand how to turn it around. She is inspirational, insightful and knows how to make you feel comfortable and open up. I highly recommend her.

Therapy is such a vulnerable practice and it can be difficult to open up and trust someone, but Erika makes that whole process feel a lot better. She's great at immediately making you feel like you're in a safe, comfortable space so you can really get to the core of why you're there and how she can help. I like that Erika remains non-judgmental but she will give you that reality check when necessary that will help you turn things around. That can be a lot to handle but Erika is there every step of the way, positively yet realistically. I'm really thankful I had a chance to speak to her :)
