CBT Therapy for Menopause-Related Mental Health & Wellbeing Yes
Menopause can be a deeply personal and often bewildering experience. If you're feeling exhausted, anxious, irritable, or unlike yourself, you're not alone—and help is available.
We offer individual Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), tailored specifically to support you through the emotional and psychological effects of menopause. Delivered by an accredited therapist, this therapy is designed to help you understand what’s happening to you, and most importantly, how to cope with it.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is a well-researched, evidence-based treatment recommended by the British Menopause Society and the NICE guidelines (2024). It can be used alongside hormone replacement therapy (HRT) or as a standalone alternative.
While CBT doesn't eliminate physical symptoms like hot flushes or night sweats, it reduces their emotional impact and helps you build stronger coping strategies to manage the challenges they bring.
In therapy, we’ll work together to:
• Manage distress related to symptoms such as hot flushes, night sweats, and disrupted sleep
• Address emotional symptoms, including anxiety, low mood, and irritability
• Improve focus and mental clarity, tackling issues like forgetfulness or difficulty concentrating
• Strengthen your sense of self, confidence, and emotional wellbeing
• Support your relationships, both personal and professional, as you navigate these changes
• Create practical coping strategies for everyday life
Every woman’s experience of menopause is unique. CBT helps you gain insight into your own symptoms and develop the tools to manage them with greater control and calm.
You may feel like menopause is controlling your life—but therapy can help you regain a sense of balance and empowerment. By reflecting on your experiences, understanding your emotional responses, and making small but meaningful adjustments, you can move forward with confidence.
If you're ready to explore how individual CBT therapy can support your mental health and wellbeing through menopause, we're here to help.
