THE MENOPAUSE HUB
Leading the field in menopause behavioral health.
Menopause can significantly impact mental and behavioral health, creating a growing need for clinicians trained to support women through the transition.
Menopause is finally getting attention.

shared clinical guidelines across the specialties they turn to
Hormone therapy alone isn’t always the answer. The evidence is clear: behavioral health interventions like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can improve menopause symptoms. Our goal is to ensure more clinicians have the tools and training to deliver it.
The Menopause Hub gives every kind of provider what they need to recognize, screen for, and respond to the behavioral health side of midlife.
