Ivy Lamb, MA LPC Associate

I am an LPC Associate specializing in helping women understand peri-menopause and how it directly impacts their mental health

Are you a women that is possibly going through peri-menopause? There isn't a lot of help out there for women 35 and up to guide us through this crazy time - and it is indeed crazy! Our hormones are all over the place, we are rethinking everything, and we are re-evaluating our worth as a woman. Kids are grown, so no more busy mommy mode. Your spouse probably chews too loud (among other things), everything is annoying,and our patience is wearing thin. We don't know what to do or even how to survive the chaos and that is where I come in! I treat the whole woman and have a network of resources,so all needs and concerns are addressed
Self-esteem takes a beating when women begin their transition, so my practice is designed to help women regain their balance. We need to talk about sex, hair, skin, organizing and decluttering living spaces, nutrition, fashion, and style, because it is all changing on us now, and there is no "What to Expect When You are in Perimenopause" guide.
I am in peri-menopause and have been for several years. I also have ADHD. I did not know what was happening all I knew is that all of my personal coping methods stopped working. My ADHD symptomes became overwhelming. I felt lost, useless, and I had no idea how to find myself, or who I even was. Sound familiar? It's not you, it's biology, and there are so many things that can help - talking with someone who has been there is one of them!
