Be Heard Live Well
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
If you are grappling with the profound emotions of grief and loss, individual psychotherapy can offer a compassionate and supportive space for healing. Grief is a highly personal and complex process that accompanies the loss of a loved one, whether through death, separation, or other significant life changes. Psychotherapy provides a structured environment to explore and navigate the myriad of emotions associated with loss, such as sadness, anger, guilt, and confusion. A therapist can assist you in understanding your unique grieving process, developing coping strategies, and finding ways to integrate the loss into your life while preserving the memory of your loved one. Through individual psychotherapy, you can gradually work towards rebuilding a sense of meaning and purpose, fostering resilience, and honoring the emotional journey that accompanies the experience of grief and loss. Taking this step reflects a commitment to your own well-being and the potential for gradual healing and restoration.

Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver approaches grief as a uniquely personal and non-linear process, understanding that each journey through loss is as individual as the person experiencing it. She guides her clients through grief’s complex stages—including shock, denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance, and hope. Dr. Cynthia validates that people don’t always move through these stages in a set order or even experience them all. Whether the loss is due to the passing of a loved one, the end of a marriage, children moving out of the home, or the heartache of losing a beloved pet, Dr. Cynthia recognizes that grief can reappear and shift in intensity over time. The intensity of complex grief can lead to depression and complex grief should be addressed with a qualified mental health professional.
Dr. Cynthia also understands that grief can lead to physical and emotional burnout. Unprocessed or ongoing grief can be especially draining, leading to exhaustion, decreased motivation, and even physical symptoms like fatigue and anxiety. Dr. Cynthia helps her clients process these emotions, providing support for high-functioning women who often feel pressured to "keep it together" despite their own pain. Her approach integrates empathy and evidence-based methods to support clients in navigating their grief, regaining strength, and eventually finding meaning through their loss. Whether working on acceptance, healing, or creating new routines, Dr. Cynthia is committed to walking alongside her clients with compassion and expertise.
