You’ve been living your life from one day to the next until something happens…

…and you can no longer see life like you once have. If so, I can help. If you’re not sure what a midlife awakening is, this is what it can look like:

In your body, you realize it’s time to stop being the superwoman you’ve always been, as you struggle with perimenopause / menopause affecting your body and emotions. But, you haven’t come up for air in years and are not sure how to take the “super” out of “superwoman.”

In your mind, you’ve grown weary of those nagging thoughts of self-judgment or perfectionism. They’ve been there for so long and you’re sick of them taking up space in your brain. You’ve had enough of feeling “not good enough.”

In your soul, you’re questioning who you are, your relationships, your life’s meaning, and the world as you know it. You may also be questioning or feel disconnected from your spirituality. You’re ready to find answers. It is also possible that these unsettling feelings have triggered disturbing experiences from the past. You thought you had already dealt with them, but now you’re not so sure...

Does this sound like you? Maybe you’ve done this work before, but now it’s time to go deeper. You may feel anxious about going down this road, but you’re ready. A part of you might question, “Do I want to revisit experiences from my past?” I understand your anxiety. It can feel scary to look at what I call the dark night of the soul you need to travel through to get to the light on the other side. But, there’s another part of you that can’t help but look forward with the conviction that change needs to occur. In our work, we honor all of your “parts” and hold space for your process. I am here to help you with your journey

You know there is an amazing future ahead of you. You realize this is a turning point in your life. You may feel anxious, but are determined to heal and evolve. You are ready to feel renewed. You want to connect with your authentic self (it’s always been there!), and finally, feel “good enough.”

With the convenience of online therapy, we can meet from any location within New York, New Jersey, or Florida, including from the comfort of your own home. You can easily reach me by email through my website, www.carolcovelli.com, to schedule your free 20 minute phone consultation today.

Most therapists were never trained to recognize how perimenopause and menopause influence emotional health.

Yet, hormonal shifts can shape mood, anxiety, focus, and even how therapy feels.

I created Understanding Perimenopause & Menopause in the Therapy Room and Healing Space to help bridge that gap — so you can better support your midlife clients and strengthen your clinical insight.

🧠 Start with the free self-assessment quiz: How Menopause-Savvy Are You?

Yesterday I shared about the course I created for helping professionals — today I’ve been reflecting on why it matters so much.

When I began experiencing perimenopause myself, I realized how much gets overlooked — even in our own healthcare and mental health systems.

That experience shaped the way I see midlife clients now.

The more we understand what’s happening physiologically and emotionally during this stage, the better we can help clients make sense of their experience instead of feeling “off” or unseen.

If you’d like to see where your understanding stands, there’s a free self-assessment quiz linked in my bio.

Most therapists were never trained for this.

✨ You know how to treat anxiety. You know how to treat stress.

But what if your client’s symptoms aren’t just emotional?

What if they’re hormonal, too — and no one told you that in grad school?

That missing awareness can change how we understand and treat the women sitting across from us.

That’s why I created Understanding Perimenopause & Menopause in the Healing Space — a concise, evidence-informed course that helps you recognize how hormonal transitions can shape emotional health, anxiety, and self-perception in midlife.

Before diving in, take the free quiz How Menopause-Savvy Are You?

It’s a quick self-assessment that helps you identify where your knowledge is strong — and where deepening it can make your work even more effective.
