PMDD Therapy
When Your Emotions Feel Unrecognizable Before Your Period​
​
PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder) is more than “bad PMS.” It can feel overwhelming, isolating, and emotionally exhausting
​
You may notice intense anxiety, rage, depression, irritability, intrusive thoughts, emotional numbness, hopelessness, or relationship conflict that seems to appear in the weeks before your cycle and ease once your period begins.
​
PMDD differs from PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome) in that symptoms are typically much more severe, occur earlier in your cycle (Day 20-21), and have a longer duration than PMS.
​

​
If you’ve been wondering:-
​
“Why do I feel emotionally out of control before my period?”
“Why does my anxiety suddenly spike every month?”
“Why do I feel so hopeless, down, or overwhelmed during certain parts of my cycle?”
“Why do small things suddenly feel impossible to handle?"
”You are not imagining it, and you are not alone.

How Therapy Can Help with PMDD
Together, we may work on:

My approach is compassionate, trauma-informed, and tailored to the unique emotional experiences women face throughout different hormonal stages of life.
PMDD, Trauma & Nervous System Sensitivity
For many women, PMDD symptoms can feel even more intense when combined with chronic stress, unresolved trauma, perfectionism, or the emotional demands of motherhood. When the nervous system is already overwhelmed, hormonal changes may amplify anxiety, emotional reactivity, panic, intrusive thoughts, or feelings of hopelessness.T herapy offers a supportive space to process these experiences and begin creating more safety, balance, and emotional steadiness.
