About Dr. Angela Downey
I’m Dr. Angela Downey—a family doctor, mother, partner, and someone who has walked the difficult but transformative path of healing from codependency. What began as a personal journey to reclaim my own identity has grown into a mission to support others navigating similar struggles. Through my podcast, The Codependent Doctor, I share stories, tools, and insights that have helped me and many others move toward healthier boundaries, self-worth, and emotional well-being.
This platform is my way of making mental health resources more accessible, especially for those who give so much of themselves—caregivers, healthcare professionals, and people-pleasers. Alongside Paging Dr. Mom and my self-guided workbooks, I offer multiple ways to connect, reflect, and grow. Whether you’re feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, or simply lost in the needs of others, know that you’re not alone. I’m here to help you reconnect with yourself and take meaningful steps toward healing.

My Books
These books are part of my Self-Healing Series—created to support you as you break free from codependency, rebuild your sense of self-worth, and start showing up more fully in your own life. Each book offers practical tools, journaling prompts, and honest guidance drawn from both personal experience and professional insight.
Whether you’re working through people-pleasing, struggling to set boundaries, or simply feeling disconnected from who you are, this series is here to walk with you. Healing takes time, but you don’t have to do it perfectly, and you don’t have to do it alone. One step at a time, you can move toward clarity, confidence, and self-trust. You got this.

Voices of Approval
“Have you ever wondered why you can’t say no and overcommit yourself? Have you questioned what self care really means? The Codependent Doctor was a great fit for me. I found myself nodding my head to questions and feeling like all the points applied to me. It is nice to know I am not alone in feeling the way I do. Thank you Dr. Downey for putting yourself out there to help others.”

“Dr. Downey’s podcast on codependency is a refreshing dive into a topic many of us can relate to. Her candid storytelling and insights into her own journey with codependency make the episode not just relatable but also eye-opening. It’s like chatting with a friend who gets it. From struggles with boundaries to seeking extermal validation, she covers it with honesty and warmth’
