Perimenopause and Menopause

Support offered online & in-person

Menopause is a natural part of aging that occurs as ovaries age and reduce their hormone production. Hormonal shifts during this phase of life often impact a woman’s health and wellness, adjusting the need for specialized care and support to manage daily experiences. With the right support, women can navigate this time with greater ease and confidence.

Perimenopause

Perimenopause is the transition before menopause that typically occurs in a woman’s 40s. A phase that may require significant adjustment, perimenopause can be an overwhelming shift filled with emotional and physical changes. While in perimenopause, women may notice mood swings, irritability, anxiety, sleep disturbances, and hot flashes, which may alter their ability to regulate and manage daily stressors.

Though a natural stage of a woman’s life, women do not need to experience perimenopause alone or without aid. Through the guidance of a mental health provider, individuals can increase their understanding of this life stage while seeking the appropriate care and treatment to better control and manage the associated symptoms.

Menopause

Menopause marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years, typically occurring in an individual's late 40s or 50s. Impacted by an alteration in hormone levels, women will notice emotional and physical changes as their periods stop. In this stage of life, women may have ongoing or altered symptoms of perimenopause, including mood swings, sleep issues, or hot flashes. Additionally, the transition into menopause can increase emotional distress around aging, relationships, or identity as a whole.

Mental health providers play an important role in this phase of life, as they help women embrace related changes while minimizing related vulnerabilities and symptoms. With the support of a provider, clients can curate their care to feel an increased sense of control and empowerment in the aging process.
