Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Are you a high-functioning woman grappling with the daily challenges of parenting while managing a chronic illness like Lyme disease? I’m Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver, a licensed clinical psychologist with 25 years of experience, specializing in supporting individuals facing chronic health challenges.
Living with a chronic illness such as Chronic Lyme disease can profoundly impact every aspect of your life. I have lived with Chronic Lyme for 12 years, while parenting two young boys. From managing unpredictable symptoms to navigating treatment regimens and coping with the emotional toll, the journey can be daunting. As someone who understands the unique difficulties of balancing parenting, career, and self-care amid chronic illness, I provide compassionate support and practical strategies to help you navigate these complexities.
In our sessions, we’ll address the enormous challenges of chronic illness, from the physical limitations to the emotional and psychological impact. Together, we’ll develop coping strategies tailored to your unique situation, explore ways to prioritize self-care without guilt, and foster resilience in the face of adversity.
My approach combines evidence-based therapies with therapeutic coaching to empower you in managing your health and well-being effectively. Whether you’re adjusting to new limitations, managing stress, or seeking ways to maintain a fulfilling life, I’m dedicated to supporting your journey as a parent and individual.
Take the first step towards managing your chronic illness with resilience and grace. Contact me today to start your journey towards greater well-being and empowerment.
