Because hormones are only part of the picture
I help women in perimenopause and menopause who feel like they are falling apart start feeling like themselves again — beyond hormone replacement — by personalising what each woman needs to regain energy, mental clarity, emotional balance, confidence, and resilience.
Many women are told their symptoms are “normal,” that their blood tests look fine, or that adjusting HRT is the only answer.
Yet they still feel exhausted, foggy, anxious, inflamed, flat, or just not like themselves.
That’s because menopause is not just about declining hormones. Stress, thyroid function, gut health, inflammation, sleep, blood sugar balance, and the way your body processes hormones can all affect how you feel.
Using advanced functional and genetic testing, together we create a strategy tailored to your body’s needs, while taking your personal story and goals into account.
Because you are unique — and your healthcare should be too.
Whether you are:
• considering HRT
• already using HRT but still not still not feeling your best
• or feeling dismissed and confused about what’s happening to your body
you deserve answers, clarity, and a plan that makes sense.
I was interviewed on Suzanne Rethans’ podcast We Zijn Toch Niet Gek about an often overlooked part of hormone health: estrogen detoxification.
We discuss why more estrogen does not always mean feeling better, and how symptoms can persist when the body is struggling to properly process and clear hormones.
My key message:
test, don’t guess — especially if you’re still not thriving on HRT.
From confusion to clarity – Join the (Peri)Menopause Circle
Too many women are navigating perimenopause feeling dismissed, isolated, or overwhelmed by conflicting information.
I created the (Peri)Menopause Circle as a safe and informed space where women can learn, ask questions, and have honest conversations about hormones, HRT, symptoms, testing, and whole-body health.
Inside, I answer your questions with evidence-based information and provide a more nuanced perspective on menopause — one that goes beyond simply “low estrogen” and looks at the full picture of women’s health.
My work combines functional medicine, hormone health, genetics, and advanced testing strategies including DUTCH testing (Dried Urine Testing for Comprehensive Hormones) and genetic analysis to help uncover why symptoms persist even when standard tests appear “normal.”
As both a practitioner and educator for healthcare professionals in functional and genetic testing, my mission is to bring more clarity, science, and empowerment to this stage of life.
You do not have to figure this out alone.
