Rediscover Your Magic.
For women in midlife who are ready to reclaim their voice, their power, and their lives.
Specialized therapy for women experiencing anger in perimenopause & menopause.
You know yourself. This feels different.
You’re not just “more irritable.”
You’re tired of editing yourself, managing everyone’s emotions, and pretending things don’t bother you when they absolutely do.
You’ve done the deep breathing, the journaling, the “it’s not worth it” pep talks, biting your tongue until it hurt.
But under the surface, the pressure never lets up.
And somewhere along the way, the woman who could handle anything started thinking:
Why am I so damn angry?
Maybe you’re tired of talking and not being heard.
Maybe you’re tired of carrying more than any one person should have to.
Maybe you’re tired of holding it all together when something inside you is screaming, enough.
And maybe the question isn’t How do I get rid of this anger?
Maybe it’s:
What is my anger trying to tell me?
Maybe your rage isn’t the problem.
Maybe your rage isn't a sign that you're broken, unstable, or failing at this whole “being a grown-ass woman” thing.
Maybe it's a signal.
A boundary that’s been crossed too many times.
A need that’s gone unmet for too long.
A truth you’ve been talking yourself out of.
A life that worked beautifully for the woman you were, but doesn't quite fit the woman you're becoming.
Rage has a way of making the invisible impossible to ignore.
And midlife has a way of bringing everything you've been tolerating into sharper focus.
Your anger isn't always telling you what to do. But it may be telling you where to look.
That's where our work begins.
Yes, hormones matter. So does everything else.
Perimenopause and menopause can change the landscape in surprising ways.
Your nervous system.
Your sleep.
Your mood.
Your capacity for stress.
Your sense of yourself in your own body.
But you're not a hormone level.
You're a whole person moving through a whole life.
And sometimes what's showing up as rage isn't just hormonal.
It's hormones plus twenty years of over-functioning.
It's hormones plus a relationship that no longer feels right.
It's hormones plus a career that has stopped fitting.
It's hormones plus grief, caregiving, exhaustion, changing bodies, shifting identities, and realizing you've spent a very long time putting yourself last.
We don't have to choose between “it's hormones” and “it's psychological.”
We can look at the whole damn picture.
what becomes possible
On the other side of this work…
You pause and consciously choose how to respond rather than reacting.
You speak to yourself with more kindness and empowerment.
You say no without guilt or apology.
You trust your inner wisdom.
You feel more comfortable and confident in making decisions.
You have relationships that are mutually supportive and fulfilling.
You make choices that actually feel like you.
You care for others without forgetting to care for yourself.
Hi, I’m Jen!
Therapist, speaker, writer and certified menopause mental health provider with over 20 years in clinical practice. My work is rooted in my own lived experience and years of deep, integrative study.
Moving through my own perimenopause journey inspired my passion to help women in navigating and channeling the very real, very powerful rage so often experienced at this pivotal stage of life.
If the rage feels overwhelming, know you're not alone. There's a path through, to more clarity, power, and fulfillment. You deserve a second half of life that's built on your terms, not on how well you can keep it together for everyone else.
Something needs to change.
Strong, successful women like you? You’ve carried more than your share: career demands, family responsibilities, relationship stress, sleepless nights and life’s curveballs. You’ve navigated puberty on your own, figured out the rules as you went, and now, you’re figuring out menopause, too.
Lately, you may be noticing:
You blow up without warning, having reached your absolute limit.
You feel blindsided by a body that's changing faster than you can keep up with.
Your relationships are beginning to suffer. Is it you? Is it them? You’re not sure anymore.
You're realizing that "keeping the peace" isn't the same thing as actually being at peace.
This isn't about becoming someone new. It's about finally becoming fully yourself: without apology, without editing, without carrying everyone else's expectations.
It’s about rediscovering your magic.
Tend Your Fire
Spark
Start with a free consultation. We'll talk about what's been building, what you're looking for, and whether working together feels like the right fit. No pressure, just an honest conversation. If it clicks, we’ll schedule your first session and get rolling.
2. Burn
This is where the real work happens: getting underneath the anger, the accommodation, the years of keeping the peace. We'll look at what's been smothering your fire and what it's been trying to tell you all along. You bring your truth. I'll bring presence, curiosity, and the willingness to sit with the heat.
3. Ignite
Little by little, you'll start moving through the world differently — with more clarity, more agency, more of yourself intact. Not a new you. The real you, with all her edges restored.
“Rather than be regulated, I would like to get in touch with what’s wild in me, in you, and on this Living Earth.”
