Psychotherapy for Women in Menopause Across Ohio
Therapy for women’s midlife transitions
Boutique therapy for midlife women in Ohio seeking to explore, process and integrate the identity and relational shifts of menopause.
I tend to work well with women in midlife who are creative, capable, and often the ones others rely on—yet who feel a little untethered inside. Sometimes they’re dealing with menopause or grief or big role shifts, and sometimes it’s harder to name. It just feels like something important is asking for attention.
My approach is grounded and not merely trauma-informed, but trauma-responsive. I pay close attention to patterns, pacing, and how things land in your body, not just the story you’re telling. I don’t rush the work, and I’m not here to fix you or push you toward answers before you’re ready.
I’m also comfortable working in both psychological and symbolic language. So if it’s useful, we might talk about nervous systems and attachment—or about cycles, archetypes, or why this season of life feels like an initiation. Some people may think in terms of Chiron (or second Saturn) return; others just know something old is falling away. Either way, we work with what’s here.
I show up as present, human and imperfect — not as someone who has it all figured out. When it genuinely serves the work, I’ll name things openly to help reduce shame and normalize what you’re experiencing. My role is to help you make sense of what’s happening so you can move forward with more self-trust and less self-doubt.
Working with the mess of midlife, not against it.
Why I am passionate about this work
Menopause and midlife are often minimized, misunderstood, or treated as something to simply endure. I care deeply about this work because I’ve seen—personally and professionally—how powerful it can be when women are met with respect, skill, and honesty during this transition. When the body changes and old identities loosen, people don’t need fixing—they need space, understanding, and thoughtful support. I’m committed to offering that kind of care, because this season of life deserves to be taken seriously.
