If you treat women over 35, you need to be ready to work with the impacts of menopause. This training gives you the science, tools, and confidence you need.
I used to run into roadblocks in treatment with my clients in midlife and beyond because I wasn’t menopause-informed.
The irritability, anxiety, brain fog, sleeplessness – it all looked like stress to me. And midlife is full of stress: caregiving, career pivots, divorce, reinvention.
But something deeper was happening.
My clients weren’t just overwhelmed. They were changing – physically, emotionally, hormonally – and they felt unmoored.
And there I was, recommending breathing techniques to manage stress, or offering time management strategies to create space for self-care.
These techniques collapsed quickly and, looking back now … I can see I was missing something important.
I wasn’t addressing the grief over shifting identity … the hormone-based emotion dysregulation … the body image distress and related health risks from disordered eating to “fix” it …
Or the reality of hot flashes, night sweats, and disrupted sleep that no amount of sleep hygiene could settle.
No more.
Now, I work from a menopause-informed lens – one that sees the whole person and the full hormonal story. And my clients go deeper. Heal more.
I’ll show you how to recognize the impact of menopause and what you can do about it. Grounded in science, empathy, and real-world clinical insight, this training will help you:
Whether you work in private practice, community care, or any setting where women seek support – or you’re a woman navigating this stage yourself – this training gives you the language and tools you need to show up for your clients with expertise and understanding.
Women deserve better care at midlife. Menopause has been overlooked for too long. Let’s change that – together.
Warmly,
Signe
