Perimenopause & Menopause Care

Perimenopause, menopause, and hormonal shifts can bring a wide range of physical and emotional symptoms that often feel confusing or overwhelming. Mood swings, irritability, anxiety, fatigue, sleep disruption, feeling “on edge,” brain fog, hot flashes, and changes in weight or energy are common during these transitions. Many women find it difficult to tell whether what they’re experiencing is related to hormonal changes, stress, mood concerns, or a combination of all three.

​

These transitions can impact daily functioning, relationships, work, and overall quality of life—especially when symptoms are dismissed or misunderstood. You may feel frustrated, depleted, or unlike yourself, and unsure where to turn for answers or relief.

​

At Waypoint Counseling & Maternal Wellness, our skilled Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner provides comprehensive evaluation and individualized care to help identify the underlying contributors to your symptoms. Depending on your needs, this may include a detailed clinical assessment, lab work, or hormone testing. Together, we work to determine whether symptoms are hormonally driven—such as related to perimenopause, menopause, or premenstrual changes—or influenced by mood, stress, or other factors.

​

From there, we collaborate on a personalized treatment plan that may include medication management, lifestyle recommendations, or coordination with therapy services. Our goal is to help you feel informed, supported, and empowered—so you can better understand your body, regain balance, and feel more like yourself during this important stage of life.
