Psychologist, Psy.D.
Are you a high-functioning mom in your 40s or 50s, juggling the demands of a successful career and parenting, but feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, or burnout? I'm Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver, a licensed clinical psychologist with a doctorate from Cornell University and 25 years of experience. I specialize in helping professional women like you navigate these challenges, providing a supportive space to explore your feelings and develop effective coping strategies.
My approach addresses the root causes of your symptoms while empowering you to set healthy boundaries, manage toxic relationships, and engage in guilt-free self-care. Whether you're dealing with emotional abuse, narcissistic partners, or the emotional toll of chronic illnesses like Lyme disease, I am here to help you break free from generational trauma, assert your needs, and reclaim your well-being.
With a passion for working with moms, I understand the unique challenges you face, from navigating menopause, caring for aging parents or dealing with their death, to dealing with the pressures of perfectionism and people-pleasing. My comprehensive approach is designed to help you find balance, joy, and fulfillment in both your personal and professional life. I've been through this myself and did the hard work of healing so I can help others with integrity. I'm on a mission to help other moms live their best life without guilt.
