Specialized Mental Health Care for Women in Perimenopause and Menopause
Could it be Perimenopause?
Perimenopause is the transition phase before menopause when hormone levels start to change and symptoms like mood swings, hot flashes, and irregular periods may occur.
"I don't feel like myself..."
Sleepless nights, brain fog, and loss of joy for the things you once loved—it’s frustrating and overwhelming. Too often, women are told to ‘just live with it’ and likely started on high-risk psychiatric medications. But you deserve answers and a path back to your best self.

Frequently asked questions
What is hormone replacement therapy?
HRT, Hormone Replacement Therapy, is the prescription treatment to replace or “boost” the vital hormones a woman needs for optimal health. Estrogen, Progesterone, and Testosterone steadily decline as a woman enters perimenopause; once menopause is reached these levels can be so low that they are not detectable. Perimenopause can start for a woman in her 30s and last until she reaches menopause. The decline in these hormones can trigger a multitude of symptoms. Some of the most common include hot flashes, mood swings, and vaginal dryness. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a prescription treatment used to boost hormone levels, by replenishing the estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone that diminish over time.
How long do I stay on HRT?
Once HRT is started and symptom relief achieved, HRT is recommended lifelong. The benefits of HRT after menopause are multifactorial and shown to prevent many chronic diseases
What is a psychotropic medication?
Psychotropic medications are prescriptions that affect mood, anxiety, sleep, and emotional regulation, and they are commonly prescribed to perimenopausal and menopausal women because hormonal shifts during this life stage can closely mimic anxiety and depressive disorders. Many of the medications are known as “antidepressants”.
What is psychotropic medication tapering?
Psychotropic medication tapering is the gradual, medically supervised reduction of psychiatric medications to minimize withdrawal effects and support nervous system stability. Plans are personalized, patient-led, and never rushed.
Do you take insurance?
