Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Are you a mom in your 40s or 50s, navigating the complexities of parenting, career, and personal well-being? I’m Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver, a licensed clinical psychologist with 25 years of experience. I specialize in helping moms like you prioritize self-care, model healthy behaviors for your children, and navigate parenting challenges.
Children learn by observing what we do, not just by what we say. It’s essential to demonstrate self-care, resilience, and balance in your own life. As a mother who began parenting later in life and now raises young children at midlife, I understand the unique challenges you face. Having worked extensively with children and adolescents, I have a deep understanding of their developmental needs and how your well-being impacts them.
Recently becoming a single mom has presented me with new challenges, especially at midlife. This experience has deepened my empathy and insight into balancing personal care with the demands of single parenthood. I know firsthand how crucial it is to carve out time for yourself amidst the daily chaos.
In our work together, we’ll develop practical strategies to integrate self-care into your routine, manage parenting challenges, and nurture your own needs. By prioritizing your well-being, you’ll feel more energized and fulfilled, while also modeling positive behaviors for your children. I’m here to support you in navigating these complexities with empathy and expertise.
Take the first step towards a healthier, more balanced life for you and your family. Reach out today to start your journey to empowerment and well-being, both as a mom and as an individual.

Tammy Morath, LMHC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC-S
“If only my child had come with an instruction manual!” That’s a thought that most parents have had at some point in their lives.
Nothing really prepares you to become a parent. Some of us were lucky enough to have parents that set a good example. But others grew up in homes where the dynamic between child and parent was anything but functional or consistently loving.
But the truth is, even if you did have loving parents that did right by you 24/7, you can never be fully prepared to handle sticky situations with your own children. You never really know what behavioral challenges your child may wind up struggling with, and how those will affect your other children and the family as a whole.
This is where parenting coaching comes in.
