MoonPhase Integrative Psychiatry & Wellness—— 🌖🌕🌔 I am a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 30 years of experience in mental health nursing. My work centers on menopause-informed and hormone-aware psychiatry, integrating mood, sleep, anxiety, cognition, and sexual health through a personalized, whole-person approach. MoonPhase emerged from decades of clinical observation revealing a consistent gap in how women’s mental health is understood during reproductive and midlife transitions. Many women sense patterns shifting within their emotional, cognitive, and physical landscape, yet conventional care often isolates symptoms rather than recognizing the underlying neurobiological transitions occurring during this phase of life. My approach integrates psychiatric care with the foundational pillars of health including nutrition, metabolic function, nervous system regulation, and lifestyle rhythms. When meaningful for the individual, symbolic, archetypal, and reflective frameworks may also be incorporated to support deeper insight, personal agency, and integration. Areas of focus include: • Perimenopause & menopause-related mood changes • Anxiety, sleep disruption, and cognitive shifts • PMDD and hormone-sensitive mood patterns • Sexual health and libido concerns • ADHD in women across the lifespan • Life transitions, identity shifts, and meaning-centered growth • Integrative and nutritional psychiatry Care is collaborative, thoughtful, and oriented toward helping women recognize patterns shaping their mental health so that decisions about treatment, medication, lifestyle, and supportive practices feel informed and aligned. MoonPhase honors the understanding that psychological change often occurs alongside biological transition, and that both deserve careful attention
