Menopause and Mental Health:
A Comprehensive Clinical Framework for Therapists
Are your midlife clients struggling with depression that isn't shifting, unexplainable anxiety, or complex trauma that suddenly feels fresh again?
​​
These symptoms are frequently rooted in the menopausal transition—yet graduate schools and licensing exams offer zero preparation for it. Without a clear clinical framework, even advanced clinicians miss the signs.
​
Equip your clinical practice with this 6-hour self-paced continuing education course. Earn your CEUs while mastering a specialized, trauma-informed framework for midlife care.
​
What You Will Learn:
The Biology of Menopause: Understand the endocrine and neurobiological shifts.
Depression & Anxiety: Identify and treat sudden-onset or treatment-resistant mood changes.
ACEs, Trauma, and PTSD: Navigate how midlife transitions trigger historical trauma.
Special Populations: Clinical protocols for cancer-induced and medical menopause.
Culturally Responsive Care: Deliver intersectional and LGBTQ+-affirming midlife support.
Clinical Assessment: Implement evidence-based screening and treatment strategies.​​

BRIDGING THE GAP:
PERIMENOPAUSE AND TRAUMA
The Realities of Midlife Trauma Care:
-
High Trauma Prevalence: 25%+ of women carry childhood abuse history; nearly 50% report adult interpersonal trauma.
-
Compounded Symptom Burden: Trauma history directly exacerbates vasomotor symptoms, sleep fragmentation, long-term cardiovascular risks, and midlife brain health changes.
-
The Systemic Gap: Most clients have never had this connection named for them—and most therapists weren't trained to spot it.
Equip your clinical practice with a clear, somatic and nervous-system-informed framework to navigate this complex transition.
