Chronic Pain or Illness
Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
When you’ve been in survival mode long enough, your body eventually starts to speak the truth your brain has been trying to ignore.
If you're a high-functioning woman living with chronic illness—Lyme disease, autoimmune issues, migraines, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, IBS, or symptoms no doctor can fully explain—you may have spent years blaming yourself. Pushing through. Powering on. Telling yourself you're just stressed, just tired, just too sensitive. But what if your illness isn’t just physical? What if your body is responding to something deeper—like the emotional trauma of a toxic or narcissistic relationship?
I work with women who are successful, smart, and chronically unwell—often without fully understanding that the constant stress, emotional abuse, gaslighting, or high-conflict co-parenting dynamic they’ve endured may be a major root cause of their health issues. These relationships dysregulate your nervous system, flood your body with cortisol, erode your immune system, and create the perfect storm for illness to take hold.
You may be:
Co-parenting with a narcissist and constantly walking on eggshells
Living with post-separation abuse, burnout, and deep emotional exhaustion
Feeling dismissed by medical providers who don’t ask about your relationships
Blaming your body while ignoring the decades of survival it’s endured
Overachieving while secretly unraveling
Wondering if your body is trying to get your attention
If you’ve found yourself searching:
Why am I always sick and exhausted?
How trauma affects chronic illness
Can narcissistic abuse cause physical illness?
Stress-related autoimmune disease in women
Burnout, inflammation, and emotional abuse
Why chronic illness flares after divorce
...you are not imagining it.
Your body is not broken. It’s been fighting to keep you alive through years of emotional chaos.
I specialize in working with women who are managing chronic illness and the emotional aftermath of toxic relationships. Whether you’re still in the relationship, co-parenting with someone who triggers you daily, or finally trying to heal in peace—this work matters. You deserve care that looks at the whole you: physical, emotional, relational, and psychological.
You’re not weak for being sick. You’re strong for surviving what made you sick in the first place.

Chronic Pain or Illness
Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
Typically, Chronic Pain Syndrome patients come to see a psychologist after being seen by a number of other health professionals to no avail, including internal medicine physicians, orthopedists, surgeons, orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, physical therapists, chiropractors, acupuncturists, emergency room doctors (for late-night injections of powerful pain killing drugs) and others. Typically, a Chronic Pain evaluation consists of several approaches to discovering which factors play the largest role in maintaining the pain. We ask patients to keep a Pain Diary for a week or two, which helps us pinpoint which activities or emotional states are related to an increase in pain level. This also helps us observe how they are actually taking their medications. We may also perform psychological testing to determine any underlying causes of depression or anxiety which should be treated in addition to the Chronic Pain and which could be helping to maintain it. At least one Family Session is held to explore whether there have been unconscious payoffs within the family for being in pain.
