Welcome to Midlife

Midlife comes with unexpected mental health changes and stress.

For women this means navigating the impact of perimenopause, menopause and post menopause hormone changes that impact mental health, anxiety, depression, rage, brain fog, feeling loss of self, and more.

For care providers this means navigating the stress of taking care of aging parents, your own kids and family while trying to hold onto yourself and your own physical and mental health struggles.

You do not need to walk this alone. Contact me for help navigating this phase of life. Click the button below.

The Menopause Transition and Mental Health

Are you experiencing any of the following and you are between ages of 35-60:

  • rise in depressive feelings

  • rise in anxiety possibly with no specific cause

  • intrusive thoughts

  • increased irritability, even rage for small things

  • no longer feel like yourself or feel “crazy” at times

  • waves of uncontrollable crying or tearfulness

  • unable to manage stress at home or work the same

  • feel like you may have ADHD after years of coping

  • new or surprising thoughts of suicide

  • insomnia

  • interest in sex or your marriage has decreased

  • experiencing brain fog

I am a therapist specializing in women’s mental health, particularly in midlife and the menopause transition. My hope is to help all women who feel that they have lost themselves, are overwhelmed, are struggling in daily life and feel alone or unsure of what is happening to their mind, physical health and family.
