Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Are you finding yourself stuck in relationships where you feel overly responsible for others' well-being, or in a constant cycle of trying to “fix” a partner? Perhaps you’re experiencing the pain and confusion of trauma bonding—being attached to someone who is emotionally unavailable or even harmful, but feeling powerless to leave. These cycles of codependency and trauma bonding often leave us feeling trapped, unworthy, and emotionally drained.
In our work together, we’ll go beyond surface-level coping strategies. As a licensed psychologist and certified coach, I’ll help you dive deep into understanding the roots of these patterns, often developed as survival mechanisms in early life or previous relationships. We’ll explore how your history has shaped your responses, and I’ll support you in learning healthier ways to connect with others.
Through our sessions, you’ll gain tools to:
-Build your self-worth independent of external validation
-Set clear, compassionate boundaries that feel authentic to you
-Recognize the signs of unhealthy attachment and rewrite your narrative
-Foster a sense of inner security and resilience
Therapy with me isn’t about a quick fix, but meaningful change. We’ll focus on reclaiming your sense of self, strengthening your voice, and freeing yourself from relationships that don’t serve your growth. Let’s work together to break these cycles and create the space for connections that uplift, respect, and honor who you truly are.

It is not easy doing things "alone" and feels "safer" having someone to depend on, at times the dependency is cathartic but most times it is the cause of many of your issues. With use of CBT, REBT, Socratic questioning and rational optimism we can work together to manage it

Karina Suero
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Are you stuck in the pattern of trying to protect your love one by giving in all the time? Are you finding that time again and again you have asked yourself to do it differently and you find that you cannot? Are you aware that you feelings of happiness in life are completely tied to how the other person is doing ? Is your life interrupted? One particular person has a problem? Does your heart skip a beat when the phone rings and you who is calling and you know what’s coming? It can be that your loved one has alcohol problem or a drug problem, or unable to grow up as an independent adult or that you can only be loved by your partner if you are the caregiver. Perhaps you have started feeling resentful about YOU being the one always caring, always protecting, always rescuing. Sometimes you ask yourself where are you in this equation.
I know it feels like there is no other way to live. I assure you that there is and that sharing responsibility in the relationship is freeing and brings space for creativity, playfulness, joy and connection without resentment.
I can help you move in that direction. Call me.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
The concept of Co-Dependency was developed as a way of explaining how family members of alcoholics, especially their spouses, became emotionally ill apparently as a result of living with an alcoholic for years.
"Co" is a prefix that means "like" or "with" - the family member becomes sick like and with "the dependent" (the person dependent on a chemical). There are several common problems that often go along with life with an alcoholic or drug abuser, including their unpredictable moods, selfish and irresponsible behavior, angry outbursts which may include verbal or physical abuse, broken promises and commitments, embarrassing public behavior, financial irresponsibility, legal problems, and inability to return love or affection. However, most chemically dependent people have periods when they function well, and this generates the hope that they will stay well, quit or control their chemical use, and become responsible and loving for good.
