Stress
Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
The chronic stress experienced by mothers in narcissistic or high-conflict relationships is not ordinary stress. It is the physiological and psychological result of sustained exposure to unpredictability, threat, and psychological manipulation. Your nervous system has been trained to stay on high alert. Your cortisol levels have been elevated for months or years. You may experience physical symptoms — exhaustion, insomnia, digestive issues, headaches — that are the body's response to prolonged psychological stress. I coined the term Narcissistic Burnout™ to describe this specific compounding exhaustion: the state that results when a mother has spent years managing someone else's chaos, absorbing emotional abuse, and suppressing her own needs in order to survive. Narcissistic Burnout™ doesn't resolve with a vacation or better time management. It requires targeted, trauma-informed therapy that addresses the nervous system damage, restores emotional regulation, and helps you rebuild a life that is no longer organized around managing someone else's instability. This is specialized stress recovery for mothers healing from narcissistic and emotionally abusive relationships.

Stress
Shannon Mick
Counselor/Therapist, NCC, LPC
Chronic stress can feel like carrying an invisible weight—especially for endurance athletes juggling high training loads, work, family, and recovery. You might notice it in tight shoulders, racing thoughts that won’t quiet, irritability that spills into relationships, trouble sleeping, or that constant “wired but tired” feeling that makes even easy runs feel hard. Over time, unmanaged stress can weaken your immune system, sap motivation, and increase risk of burnout or injury.
In our work together, we create a personalized plan to understand your unique stress triggers and build sustainable ways to respond. Using CBT to reframe overwhelming thoughts, DBT skills for distress tolerance and emotion regulation, ACT to align actions with your values, and movement-informed strategies that leverage running as a tool for regulation, we focus on practical tools that fit your busy life.
Many clients experience meaningful relief such as:
Lower overall stress levels and better recovery between hard efforts.
Improved sleep, energy, and immune function.
Stronger boundaries and ability to say “no” without guilt.
Greater calm and focus both on and off the trails.
More consistent training and enjoyment of the sport they love.
I regularly share helpful resources like the Self-Care Assessment, Distress Tolerance Coping Skills (DBT), and the distress scale tool so you can track progress and have go-to strategies between sessions.
You don’t have to power through stress alone. With the right tools, you can reduce its hold, protect your health and performance, and create space for the strong, balanced life you want. Let’s work together so stress stops running you—so you can finish stronger every day.
