Dear Diana
Dear Diana is a supportive space for women navigating midlife, perimenopause, and menopause. It offers clear, compassionate guidance on emotional wellbeing, relationships and identity during hormonal transitions.
Welcome to Dear Diana
For more than 25 years, I have supported women through major life transitions, including motherhood, perimenopause, and menopause. I understand how isolating it can feel when emotional or physical changes seem unfamiliar or overwhelming.
Dear Diana exists to offer clarity and reassurance. It is a place to bring your honest questions and receive grounded, compassionate insight.
While I am a licensed therapist, the responses shared here are educational and supportive in nature and do not create a therapeutic relationship. If you are experiencing significant distress, therapy may be a more appropriate form of support.
While I read every submission, I may not be able to respond to or publish each one.
Write a letter to Diana
Dear Diana is a personal advice column where you can share your questions, struggles, or concerns related to midlife and menopause. While this is not therapy, it is a space for thoughtful reflection, honest guidance, and perspective during challenging seasons.
