Perimenopause: You're Not Alone – And You Don’t Have to Go Through It Alone

Menopause is a significant life transition experienced by all women, yet it often comes with a sense of isolation, confusion, and silence. The transitional period leading up to menopause, known as perimenopause, can begin in a woman’s 30s, 40s, or 50s—and in some cases, even earlier due to medical reasons.

What Does Perimenopause Feel Like?

Hot flashes, sleep disturbances, brain fog, and weight fluctuations are just some of the physical challenges women may face. Emotionally, many report mood swings, increased anxiety, irritability, or depression. It’s not uncommon to find yourself wondering:

What’s happening to me? Why don’t I feel like myself anymore?

Perimenopause doesn’t just impact your body—it can affect your emotional wellbeing, relationships, and even your sense of identity. And yet, women's health during this stage of life is often under-discussed and under-recognized.

You Are Not Alone. And What You're Feeling Is Real

It’s time to change the conversation around perimenopause—to honour its complexity and create space for open, validating dialogue. That starts with support, community, and compassion.

The Power of Group Therapy for Perimenopause

Group therapy offers a safe and supportive space to connect with others who truly understand what you’re going through. It provides a chance to be seen, heard, and validated by those on a similar journey.

Whether you’re:

• Struggling with night sweats that disrupt your sleep,

• Feeling like a stranger to your moods, or

• Questioning who you are during this life transition,

  
  

Group therapy can help you feel less alone and more empowered.
