Heading towards the menopause can feel like being on an emotional rollercoaster, over which you have no control.
Stress, anxiety, mood swings and brain fog often feel like they’re ruling your life. Then add in night sweats, hot flushes and insomnia; and it’s no wonder your mood is low and you feel overwhelmed.
But you can regain control of your life and improve your wellbeing. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can help you turn your perimenopause life around. Find out what is involved with CBT and ACT, what it can do for you and how these strategies can be game-changing. Simona Stokes, Counselling Psychologist with a specialist interest in peri/menopause discusses all this and more in her Expert Opinion article Menopause and Mood Management.
