Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
This isn’t just divorce. It’s survival.
If you're divorcing a narcissist or toxic ex, you're not just ending a marriage—you're trying to untangle yourself from a master manipulator who’s now using the legal system, your kids, your reputation, and your sanity as leverage.
I specialize in supporting women going through high-conflict divorce, especially from narcissistic or emotionally abusive partners. Whether you're still in it or just got out, the chaos doesn’t end with the paperwork. There’s post-separation abuse, financial control, legal intimidation, parallel parenting nightmares, and a deep, aching grief that no one else seems to understand.
You’re strong. You’re high-functioning. And yet… you’re falling apart inside. That doesn’t make you weak. It makes you human—and it means you're carrying far too much, far too alone.
I help women divorce with clarity, strategy, and support—especially when you’re dealing with narcissistic burnout.
I’m Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver, a licensed psychologist and certified coach with over 25 years of experience helping women navigate the mental, emotional, and logistical warfare of toxic divorces. This isn’t just therapy. This is battle-tested, strategic support that helps you stay sane, stay grounded, and protect your children through every phase of the storm.
You’re not co-parenting—you’re parallel parenting with someone who thrives on conflict.
I help you create boundaries, manage court-related anxiety, emotionally detach from manipulation, and make empowered decisions that protect your future. You won’t just “talk about it”—you’ll get tools, mindset shifts, scripts, strategies, and real-time support when things go off the rails.

Common questions I help women answer:
“Is this just a hard divorce—or is it narcissistic abuse?”
“Why does it feel like the abuse got worse after I left?”
“How do I protect my kids from his chaos without looking like the ‘problem parent’?”
“How do I survive the smear campaigns, gaslighting, and court games?”
“Why do I feel so confused, exhausted, and broken when I’m the one who finally got out?”
You’re not crazy. You’re not weak. You’re just stuck in a system and a dynamic that was never designed to protect you. But you don’t have to do it alone.

Let’s help you rebuild, re-center, and reclaim your life—one step at a time.

Christine Mazurkiewicz
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Life transitions are often difficult and divorce is one that is quite common. Allowing children to have a voice in their experience and helping the adults to co-parent effectively can make all the difference.

Gabrielle Rocchino
Psychologist, PhD
My approach to therapy is flexible to meet the unique needs of each person and is grounded in the goal for you to feel deserving of connection, clarity and a fulfilled life. In my work with clients, we co-create a space where you feel supported in your navigation of challenges and stuck points, and celebrated for your wins and opportunities for pride. My practice centers on self-compassion and defining empowerment, which I believe to be valuable tools to help you identify your values and traverse concerns like trauma, invalidating interpersonal histories, challenging relationships, anxiety, self-worth, and depression.

Dr. Lindsay Perrin

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
Divorce can be both a gift and a curse; in any case, it is rarely easy, particularly when children are involved. As my own therapist once advised many years ago when I worked through my own divorce, you cannot expect to dismantle a family without having to walk through the rubble. I help couples and individuals work on their relationship yet also recognize when letting go and parting may be a healthier solution. Helping individuals divorce mindfully and with compassion is the goal from my perspective.

Carrie Askin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Even a 'good' divorce can shake the ground under your feet. Dismantling a shared life is difficult and you may be having a lot of contradictory feelings: grief mixed with relief, compassion and anger. It can take some time to start to grieve and to figure out how you want to rebuild your life. In our work together we'll make space for all of the feelings and we'll work through what lessons you want to learn and figure out what you want moving forward.
