FAQ

My Positive Menopause offers holistic support for individuals navigating menopause. Using evidence-based approaches like positive psychology, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and hypnotherapy, we help you manage symptoms, enhance emotional wellbeing, and embrace this life stage with confidence and balance.

Positive psychology focuses on building strengths like gratitude and optimism, helping you reframe menopause in a positive light. CBT is a proven method for managing negative thoughts and emotions, reducing stress and anxiety. Hypnotherapy helps to alleviate symptoms like hot flashes, sleep disturbances, and emotional overwhelm by guiding you into a state of relaxation and focus.

No referral is needed. You can directly book a consultation or session. However, it's always advisable to consult with your healthcare provider about any menopause-related concerns.

In your first session, we’ll discuss your unique experiences and challenges with menopause. I’ll introduce you to the techniques I use, and together, we’ll develop a personalised plan to help you thrive through this transition.

The number of sessions varies depending on individual needs and goals. Some clients find relief after a few sessions, while others prefer ongoing support to continue building emotional resilience and managing symptoms.

While positive psychology, CBT, and hypnotherapy can help manage common menopause symptoms like hot flushes, mood swings, anxiety, sleep problems, and brain fog by promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and altering negative thought patterns. It can also help improve emotional well-being, self-confidence, and resilience during this transition. For physical symptoms, it’s recommended to combine these approaches with medical guidance. 

Yes, hypnotherapy is a safe and natural technique. It involves guiding you into a deeply relaxed state where your mind becomes more open to positive suggestions. This can help reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and manage menopause-related discomfort.

Yes, studies have shown that hypnotherapy can significantly reduce the frequency and intensity of hot flushes. It helps by inducing relaxation, which calms the body’s stress response that often triggers these symptoms.
