Frequently Asked Questions about the (peri)menopause Mood & Mind Mentor option
Is this a medical appointment?
​
No. Although I am a GP and menopause specialist, this service is not a medical consultation. These sessions focus on emotional wellbeing, psychological support, and helping you make sense of what you’re experiencing.
I will not diagnose, prescribe, interpret tests, or provide medical treatment.
​
Do you work in-person or online?
​
Both — you choose what suits you.
You can mix and match between in-person and video sessions.
​
Can you advise me on HRT or medication?
​
I can explain how treatments work in general, but I will not recommend or adjust specific medications.
I can help you explore your feelings about treatment decisions and prepare questions for your healthcare provider.
