Too often menopause is framed only through symptoms, loss, or decline. Yet writers and thinkers like Greer remind us that this life stage can also hold depth, perspective and a profound expansion of self. For many women, menopause is not only a biological transition but a psychological and existential one, a time when identity, relationships and priorities are re-evaluated.

At our upcoming conference, we are asking an important question:

How can we, as clinicians, support women not only through the challenges of hormonal change, but also towards the potential for integration, authenticity and growth that this stage of life can bring?

Join us to explore the intersections between hormones, mood, psychotherapy and women’s lived experience, and how integrated care can better support women through midlife transitions.

"I feel more visible now than I ever did when I was younger. Yes, I was looked at, but only as an object of projection—completely disconnected from who I felt I was inside. Now, I feel I am truly seen. I am more authentic, integrated, and powerful. I care far less about what others think. I am more in touch with my inherent goodness and creativity, which bring me greater joy than at any other time in my life."
– 58 yr old psychiatrist

Menopause isn’t just loss.

It can be integration, authenticity, and freedom.

Let’s change the narrative.

"During the period of life we call the perimenopause and menopause, women can experience a sense of 'rage' at the societal 'con' they have been unwittingly part of—being socialised into invisibility or objectification, leaving them unaware of themselves and unable to truly see their own identity…"
– Therapist, BBC Woman’s Hour 2024

This quote from Dr Rachel Gibbons editorial on the Royal College of Psychiatrist’s first ever position on menopause points to something deeply psychological. Menopause is not only a biological transition, but a moment of reckoning with identity, value, and how women have been seen, or not seen, throughout their lives.

Our conference will explore how clinicians can work with these powerful emotional experiences, rather than reducing them to symptoms alone.

Last Chance to Book! Working with Chronic Pain, Trauma & Attachment Series

This course offers an experience of treating chronic pain from the inside out and the outside in. Course leader Dr. Fran Sommer Anderson will offer guided experiential processes, share interviews and podcasts with leaders in the field of research and treatment as well as selections from the literature on chronic pain and published clinical case material. She will teach you basic self-regulation tools that you can use in treating people in persistent somatic distress.

The class is experiential and didactic, not a lecture format. Each week there will be assignments and/or readings provided. We encourage you participants to engage with the readings and learning materials and to participate in class as this will enhance learning considerably.

Assignments and materials will be made available in participant’s TR Together accounts each week for the following session. We will be sharing these details week by week so as to pace your engagement. At the end of the course you will have access to all the course materials in your account for lifelong learning.

Dr. Fran Sommer Anderson will lead the course, a relational psychoanalyst in New York City and specialist in treating chronic somatic pain and emotional trauma.

“Male dominance – and with it the superiority of the male body – was cemented into medicine’s very foundations, laid down in ancient Greece. In the third century BC, the philosopher Aristotle described the female body as the inverse of the male, with its genitalia turned outside in. Women were marked by their anatomical difference from men, and medically defined as faulty, defective, deficient.”
– Cleghorn 2022

This legacy continues to shape how women’s bodies, and experiences such as menopause, are understood, often reducing complex psychological transitions to purely biological processes.

Our conference seeks to challenge this legacy by bringing together medical and psychological perspectives in a more integrated, holistic approach.

“(There is) a view of menopause as catastrophe”…. “If women on the youthful side of the climacteric could glimpse what this state of peaceful potency might be, the difficulty of the transition would be lessened”
– Greer 1991
