Praise for Pia Mellody’s Facing codependence:

“Offers tried and effective ways to treat co-dependency…Splendid!” – John Bradshaw, author of “Healing the shame that binds you”

Pia Mellody, a nationally recognized authority on codependence , is a consultant at the Meadows, an addiction treatment center at Wickenburg, Arizona.

Andrea Wells Miller is a writer and president of A.W Miller & Associates, a communications company.

This is a recovery workbook for facing codependence.  In this new workbook , Pia presents a step by step method of journal keeping for moving toward recovery from codependence.

Based on concepts as the “inner child” , the 5 core symptoms of codependence and the 12-step process of recovery used by co-dependents Anonymous, “Breaking free” provides strategies and insights for dealing with the raw problem of codependence – the inability to live as a mature adult and have good relationships.

In a 3 part approach to recovery, Pia Mellody first shows recovering co-dependents how to move beyond denial of their childhood history of abuse.

She then gives methods to know when codependence rules the lives of people. Pia Mellody guides us and helps to break free from the chains of codependence.
