Perimenopause and Menopause can bring about a host of changes - physically, emotionally, and mentally - that leave many women feeling like they’re in uncharted territory. From the unpredictable onset of hot flashes, anxiety, brain fog and forgetfulness to the rollercoaster of mood swings, menopause can manifest in a myriad of ways, causing you to feel like you’re living in a body and mind that you no longer recognize.

In the midst of these changes, it's not uncommon to find yourself questioning, "Who am I?" as you grapple with behaviors and emotions that seem unfamiliar and out of character. If this sounds like you, and you’ve been feeling confused, frustrated, or isolated, know that you aren’t alone and it’s not all in your head. It’s just menopause!  Although menopause is real, it doesn’t have to be your undoing. Your hormones no longer need to steal the spotlight.

Whether you're experiencing mood swings, sleep disturbances, changes in libido, or other symptoms, I'm here to provide you with the guidance and support to navigate these changes and use this as an opportunity to reimagine and reinvent the second half of your life.
