Anxiety or Fears
Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
The anxiety you're experiencing isn't a character flaw or a mental health condition that appeared out of nowhere. For mothers recovering from narcissistic abuse, anxiety is a nervous system response to years of living in unpredictable, psychologically unsafe environments. When you've spent months or years walking on eggshells, managing someone else's moods, and anticipating the next blowup, your brain gets rewired into a state of chronic hypervigilance. You scan for threats even when there are none. You rehearse conversations. You apologize before you've done anything wrong. As a licensed psychologist with 30 years of clinical experience specializing in narcissistic abuse recovery, I work with mothers to understand the specific anxiety that comes from coercive control and emotional abuse — and to heal it at the nervous system level, not just manage the symptoms. This is not generic anxiety therapy. It is targeted recovery work for women whose anxiety has a specific origin and requires a specialist who understands it.

Peter D. Ruffini
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II
I help men whose anxiety doesn’t shut off—constant pressure, overthinking and worry, vigilance, or physical tension that interferes with focus, sleep, and relationships. Treatment goes beyond symptom management to address the underlying drivers, including trauma responses, rigid belief systems, and emotional avoidance. Using evidence-based approaches, we work to reduce anxiety at its source so it no longer controls your decisions or behavior.
