And your doctor has 12 minutes.
You're gaining weight doing everything right. You're snapping at people you love. You feel like a stranger in your own skin... and you suspect perimenopause might have something to do with it.
So you make an appointment. Your doctor is already running behind. By the time the blood pressure cuff comes off and the blood draw is done, you have two minutes left. The conversation you actually needed to have never happens.
At best, she asks you to come back in three months. At worst... "you're too young" or "have you tried therapy?"
Before your appointment we spend two focused sessions together. No rushing. No Googling at midnight. Just the two of us getting really clear on what's happening and exactly what you need to say so you walk in feeling calm, prepared, and confident.
We get clear on:
- What's actually happening in your body
- Your full symptom picture and when things started shifting
- What good menopause care looks and sounds like so you recognize it when you get it
- What treatment options exist, including hormones and non-hormone approaches
- Exactly what to say so nothing important gets forgotten
You walk into that appointment with a simple one-page cheat sheet. Everything your doctor needs to know. Every question you want answered. It's all right there in front of you so you don't have to keep track of it in your head or hope you remember it when the moment comes.
Then you go to your appointment. Then we talk again.
Because you're going to come home with a lot of new information. And probably a friend at happy hour who has very strong opinions about all of it. That follow-up call is where we make sense of what you heard together... so you feel confident in the recommendations made and why they're the right choices for you specifically. Instead of going back six months later still feeling like crap.
- Two 30-minute coaching sessions
- Personalized one-page cheat sheet
- 30-minute follow-up after your appointment
Still Googling at midnight. Still getting conflicting information. Still leaving appointments feeling unheard. Still not feeling like yourself.
Or you could walk into your next appointment ready.
