The New Perimenopause: What Every Psychotherapist Should Know

Perimenopause is a natural developmental stage and yet women (and folks with uteruses) are so often caught off guard by this important (albiet bumpy) rite of passage.

Now more than ever before there are options to support women with both the mental and physical health vulnerabilities that can pop up during these years that lead up to menopause.

Join us to discuss all things perimenopause through the lenses of mind, body and spirit.

You'll leave with an understanding of:

1. what perimenopause is and isn't and why it matters for mental health providers
2. screening tools to recognize lesser known symptoms of perimenopause (there are a lot of them).
3. the mental health vulnerabilities for women in perimenopause
4. the link between neurotransmitters and hormones, as well as the changes that happen in our brains during this time.
5. how to honor both the grief and opportunity that comes with such an important transition
6. When to refer and who to refer to, when you're clients need additional support
