IM GOOD! ā˜ŗļøšŸ˜‚

03/16/2026

i’ve struggled with body image for most of my life. like, a long time. and even now, even after all the work i’ve done…the intrusive thoughts still show up. mean ones. critical ones. the kind that are so loud they almost feel like facts.

i know they’re not true. i really do. i know how to notice them, name them, detach from them. but sometimes knowing that doesn’t make them quieter.

so on the hard days, i let myself feel it. i don’t try to rush through it or pretend it’s not there. but i also try really hard not to spiral into self pity because i know that hole, and it doesn’t lead anywhere good.

instead, i’ll do mirror work. which, if you haven’t heard of it…it’s basically the practice of looking at yourself in the mirror and speaking kindly to yourself. out loud. even when it feels uncomfortable. especially when it feels uncomfortable. and then i’ll apologize to my body.

i know that might sound strange, but i’ll genuinely say ā€œi’m sorry.ā€ for the mean things i thought. for the way i spoke about it. and then i’ll start naming what my body actually does for me. the way it heals. the way it shows up. the ways it has carried me through things i didn’t think i’d survive.

every body is so beautiful in its own way. i really believe that for everyone except sometimes myself, you know?

but i’m learning to treat myself the way i’d treat someone i love. slowly. imperfectly. but i’m trying. šŸ¤

If you love someone with anxiety, you’ve probably said one of these without knowing. It doesn’t make you a bad person…it means no one taught you what actually helps.

Earlier this week I posted about what anxiety in perimenopause actually looks like and the response was overwhelming.

So many of you commented and messaged saying ā€œthis is exactly meā€ and I want you to know, you are not alone and you are not overreacting.

So I wanted to follow up with something practical.

Here’s what’s important to understand first: anxiety during perimenopause is real and hormonally driven, but it doesn’t always have one single cause. For some women it’s declining estrogen. For others it’s low progesterone, a struggling thyroid, disrupted sleep, blood sugar instability, or years of accumulated stress that perimenopause finally pushes to the surface. Often it’s a combination of all of the above.

That’s why what works for one woman may not work for another and why a personalized, whole-body approach matters so much more than a one-size-fits-all fix.

These steps aren’t a prescription. They’re a starting point. A way to begin understanding your body, advocating for yourself with your doctor, and taking back some control during a season that can feel really disorienting.
If even one or two of these help you feel more like yourself, that’s a win worth sharing.

Which of these have you already tried? And which one are you going to start with? Drop it in the comments šŸ‘‡

Perimenopause doesn’t just affect your body, it rewires your nervous system.

As estrogen drops, so do serotonin, dopamine, and GABA (the chemicals that keep you calm). That’s why anxiety in perimenopause can feel so out of nowhere, so intense, and so different from anything you’ve experienced before.

If this list sounds like your every day, this isn’t a you problem. This is a hormone problem and you deserve real answers.

Which one on this list hits closest to home for you? Comment the number below šŸ‘‡

…you might be surprised how many women are feeling the exact same thing.

Save this post so you can come back to it, and share it with a woman in your life who keeps saying she ā€œjust feels off lately.ā€ She needs to see this. 🌿

After 40, so many women are quietly asking the same questions about who they are now, what their body means, whether love is still possible, and whether the life they imagined is still within reach.

These thoughts aren’t signs that something is wrong with you. They’re signs that you’re awake. That you’re honest with yourself. That you’re in the middle of something real.

The women who heal aren’t the ones who had it all figured out. They’re the ones who stopped pretending they did.

If any of these thoughts have lived rent-free in your mind…this one’s for you. šŸ’›

Comment ā€œHEALā€ below if this resonates and let’s build a community of women who finally feel less alone in this journey.

I have worked in the field of psychology for over 10 years and I am so grateful to be helping others feel hopeful and positive about their future. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s Degree in Clinical & Counseling Psychology and a Certification in School Counseling in Pennsylvania. My specializations include work with children, teens, and adults of all ages and across a number of therapeutic settings including education, private practice, outpatient, & residential. I believe this has led to my unique approach in treating individuals based on their own needs while being a guiding force towards self-awareness and growth. I have an extensive experience working with women struggling with anxiety or depression related to life transitions or life event including trauma, infertility, post-partum, divorce, career, etc. I also specialize in work with children with special needs including ADHD, Autism, and Anxiety (social anxiety, performance anxiety, OCD, panic attacks). I also run multiple therapy groups focusing on Self-Esteem, Bereavement, Anger Management, Impulse Control, & Trauma. My therapeutic work highlights an individual’s strengths built upon a holistic approach, with an emphasis in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). As a cognitive therapist, I guide clients towards finding awareness within themselves that helps them gain insight on thought patterns that may have become upsetting or troublesome. This helps empower clients to create their own change and break negative thought patterns while discovering a life that leads to new possibilities. I believe the best therapeutic relationship is built upon trust and non-judgement, which provides clients with a safe environment and produces successful outcomes. I offer free 20-minute phone consultations for anyone seeking help, those uncertain about the therapeutic process, or those with general questions.
