Alethea Gard'ner, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Parenting is one of the most wonderful and hardest things we embark on. I think if anyone ever told us how difficult it would be (ahead of time) there would be a lot fewer parents. At the same time, most of us can't image not having our kids because of how deeply we love them. So when something isn't going well with our children, it can be very difficult to manage our feelings. Together we can navigate your feelings, find the goals for change, and develop the steps to take to make parenting positive.

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.

PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
If it’s therapy between multiple family members that you need, we have therapists with experience.
Family therapy can be a great place to start or the perfect place to “end up.” When one member of the family is having issues, it affects EVERY member. How each person copes with problems is unique. If there is one thing a family therapist might share it would be this: When each person works to “own their part,” change is more likely to occur. Sometimes, it works best if individual therapy comes first—there may be a history of misunderstandings that need to be worked through before you all get together in the same room. Family therapy is even possible online. Each member can join from separate rooms, or they can sit together—just like in person. Learning the basics of healthy communication, identifying hidden resentments, and exploring unspoken family “rules” can be tough, but absolutely worth it. Let our therapists help to bring your family closer.
