What is codependence? Where does it come from? How does it sabotage your life, or the lives of your parishioners or clients? In this new resource, Pia Mellody identifies codependent behavior and traces its origin back to childhood, describing a horrendous range of emotional, spiritual, intellectual, physical, and sexual abuses. And she outlines effective recovery therapy that enables codependents to re-parent themselves. 224 pages, paper from Harper & Row.
