Pre-menstrual health conditions

Severe pre-menstrual health conditions, including Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), reflect neurobiological sensitivity.

 

Your daily functioning, relationships, work, and wellbeing can feel stretched to breaking point every month and, what’s maybe worse, you feel misunderstood, dismissed, blamed or to blame.

​

Your luteal phase experiences and symptoms are not signs of weakness, poor coping skills, or character flaws – though you may have been told this.

 

But they do require nuanced understanding and care.

​

Rather than simply working with emotional distress, our work together includes:

​

• Understanding luteal phase neurochemistry and its impacts on mood, thinking, energy and stress

• Tools to buffer your nervous system that target overstimulation, build resilience and support better sleep

• Phase-specific life planning

• Relationship repair strategies

• Shame reduction

• Strengthening self-trust and internal coherence
