I am a former midwife and public health nurse, a psychology(2018) and sociology masters graduate (2020) . My dissertation was titled “Silence, Taboo and Midlife Women” which involved in depth interviewing of women here in Ireland on their experiences and understandings of menopause.

I am on a mission to tell a new story about menopause as the old story has not served women’s best interests. The silencing and shaming of menopausal women has to stop. It’s time to speak up!

I work with women transitioning through perimenopause and  menopause. The first consultation explores where the client is at and how best we may be able to work together.

A detailed questionnaire is completed prior to our first consultation. A collaborative plan is then outlined taking account of the clients lifestyle, past history, and symptoms.

All available options to manage symptoms are discussed and clients are signposted to relevant providers if needed.

During initial consults many women tell me they want to get their old self back. I tell them I am not the person who can do that. However, what I can do and what I am good at doing is assisting women find a new woman within, a woman who is stronger, more powerful, creative and self- aware. If you are curious and would like to find that new woman, I would love to hear from you.
