Menopause is a significant life transition that can amplify unresolved past experiences, bringing them to the forefront of your mind. At Gentle Counselling, I offer specialised menopause counselling to help you navigate these challenges. With a compassionate and understanding approach, I can provide a safe space to explore your thoughts and emotions, empowering you to manage this phase with confidence and clarity.

We also offer a CBT for Menopause course: A Natural Alternative to HRT
As oestrogen levels fall during menopause, many women experience challenging symptoms that affect their daily lives. While HRT is an option, it may not be suitable or desirable for everyone.
What if you can’t or prefer not to take HRT – how can CBT help.
If you can’t or prefer not to take HRT, CBT offers a safe, drug-free way to manage menopause symptoms like hot flushes, stress, and insomnia. The Menos trials show CBT reduces symptom impact, helping women feel less stressed and more in control.
Also, the latest NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) guidelines recommend CBT, which is effective in managing emotional and physical menopause symptoms.
What Can CBT Do for You?
CBT is not about simply thinking positive thoughts. Instead, it teaches practical tools like reframing negative thinking and developing coping strategies. These skills can help you handle menopause symptoms more effectively and can be applied to many other areas of life.
Take control of your menopause journey with CBT. It’s not about eliminating the symptoms, but about gaining the tools to manage them with confidence and ease.
