Finding Support for Early, Surgical, or Treatment-Induced Menopause

Navigating early, surgical, or treatment-induced menopause can be challenging, but you're not alone. At The Menopause OT, coaching provides the support and guidance you need to feel empowered and in control. Discover how a personalized approach can help you thrive through this transition.

Understanding Early and Surgical Menopause

You’re Not Imagining This — and You’re Not Alone.

If menopause arrived suddenly, unexpectedly, or far earlier than you ever anticipated, it can feel disorienting, isolating, and overwhelming.

 

You might be wondering:

  • Why does my body feel so unfamiliar?
  • Am I too young for this?
  • What does this mean for my long-term health — my bones, my heart, my brain?
  • Why does it feel like no one around me really understands what I’m going through?
  • Why didn't my doctor prepare me for this?

 

Early, surgical, and treatment-induced menopause can turn your world upside down — physically, emotionally, and psychologically — often all at once.

Menopause Coaching can help you steady yourself, make sense of what’s happening, and begin to feel more grounded and in control again.

Biggest Fears & Frustrations

Feeling too young, worrying about long-term health, feeling dismissed by doctors, grieving loss of fertility, and experiencing anxiety or depression are common. The Menopause OT offers support to address these concerns.

Challenges & Obstacles

Lack of trustworthy information, difficulty accessing support, overwhelm from hormonal changes, shame, and struggling to maintain energy and focus are significant obstacles. Coaching provides guidance to overcome these hurdles.

Desires & Dreams

Feeling informed, empowered, protecting long-term wellbeing, rediscovering confidence, connecting with others, and creating a new sense of identity are achievable goals. The Menopause OT helps you achieve them. 

What Makes My Support Different

Many resources focus solely on managing individual symptoms. I look at how these changes affect your daily life, routines, energy, and long-term health. Together, we optimize the systems that support you, so you can regain control, feel more balanced, and reduce the mental load of managing symptoms.

 

This Space Is for You If…

 

  • You feel too young to be going through menopause and worry about what this means for your future
  • You’ve felt dismissed, rushed, or unsupported by medical providers
  • You’re grieving changes in your body, fertility, identity, or sense of self
  • You’re trying to hold everything together — work, family, relationships — while feeling depleted inside
  • You want trustworthy, compassionate guidance without being told to “just be grateful” or “do more”

You don’t need to do this alone. And you don’t need to have it all figured out to take the next step

An OT Perspective

 

With over 20 years of experience as an occupational therapist, and as someone who personally navigated early menopause myself, I bring a unique lens to menopause support. I don’t just address what’s happening to your body—I look at how it interacts with your life. Together, we optimize the systems that support you—your daily routines, sleep, nutrition, movement, and stress management—so you can regain control, feel more balanced, and reduce the mental load of managing symptoms.

 

Rather than chasing each symptom individually, we focus on creating sustainable, personalized strategies that address the root causes of imbalance. This approach helps you feel empowered, confident, and supported—not just surviving your menopause transition, but thriving through it.

 

Key differences in my support:

  • OT perspective: I see the whole person and how symptoms impact your daily function, energy, and quality of life.

  • Systems-focused approach: We optimize routines, habits, and supportive structures instead of simply reacting to symptoms.

  • Personalized strategies: Every plan is tailored to your unique needs, whether your menopause is early, surgical, or treatment-induced.

  • Empowerment and education: I guide you to understand your body and its changes, so you can make informed decisions and feel in control.
