Book NOW!This webinar is for health professionals wishing to understand the menopause–mental health connection and why psychological therapies must be adapted to support women effectively at this stage of life.
Who it’s for:
Psychologists, CBT therapists, counsellors, psychotherapists, mental health practitioners, coaches, and professionals supporting midlife women’s emotional and psychological wellbeing.
Overview
Menopause is a universal transition, yet its psychological impact remains widely misunderstood and frequently overlooked in clinical practice. Many women seeking support during perimenopause and menopause experience changes that extend far beyond hot flushes or hormonal shifts. Mood instability, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, cognitive difficulties, sleep disruption, heightened stress sensitivity, and identity changes have a profound influence on mental health and wellbeing.
This 90-minute webinar offers a clear, accessible introduction to Menopause-Informed Psychological Care. It provides essential foundations to help professionals recognise, understand, and respond to the complex interplay between hormonal change, brain function, inflammation, stress physiology, and psychological experience during menopause.
What You'll Learn
By the end of this webinar, participants will:
-
Understand the key biological, neurological, and psychological changes occurring during perimenopause and menopause.
-
Learn why menopause is a critical mental health touchpoint and why traditional therapeutic approaches often fall short without menopause-specific knowledge.
-
Explore common emotional and cognitive symptoms linked to hormonal transitions, including anxiety, intrusive thoughts, low mood, irritability, sleep disturbance, and executive function challenges.
-
Discover the foundations of Menopause-Informed Psychological Care, including the EMBERS® framework and how it supports holistic assessment and intervention.
-
Learn how to start integrating menopause literacy into your current practice, even before undertaking specialised training.
-
Gain confidence in recognising red flags, offering validation, and creating a supportive therapeutic space for women navigating this transition.
