Is it really menopause?

Symptoms of menopause may include feeling out of control, sleep issues, night sweats, anger, tearfulness and moodiness.

Many women sail through menopause without many if any disturbing symptoms. However, the women who come to me for counseling are in great emotional distress. If you are experiencing sleep issues, night sweats, anger, tearfulness, moodiness and feel out of control pay a visit to your medical doctor. If you would like help with emotions a counselor or therapist may help.

For example, I see a 49 year old woman who is at the beginning of menopause. She is being treated by her M.D. for physical symptoms. She sees me to help with emotion regulation. She values having an unbiased professional, who can listen and guide her through this journey.

You were not meant to struggle alone.
