Every woman has a different story 

No two experiences of perimenopause or menopause are exactly the same.

Some women come to me exhausted and frustrated after months or years of trying to understand why they don't feel like themselves. Others are looking for natural support through the transition, or are using HRT but feel there are still pieces of their health that haven't been addressed.

Some find me through the podcast or my book. Others arrive through a recommendation from a friend.

What they have in common is a desire to understand their health, feel heard and have an approach that's personalised to them.

I'm incredibly grateful to the women who have allowed me to share their experiences here.

“Jennifer is thorough, compassionate and patient.”

“Two years ago, my body was screaming. My anaemia was so bad that it was hard to walk across the room. My IBS had reached the worst ever and controlled every minute of every day. At 52 years old, I could no longer enjoy life with my husband and young adult children. My limitations plunged me into an isolated life and a very dark place.

After visiting several doctors and gynaecologists, I became even more discouraged. I felt that no one seemed to have the time or patience to get to know the real me.

I didn’t feel the options I had been offered were right for me, so I began researching online for someone working in menopausal healthcare who might be able to support me.

I discovered Jennifer at Menopause Natural Solutions. I was hesitant to sign up for the consultation because I didn’t think anything would come from it.

I was so wrong.

Jennifer is thorough, compassionate and patient. Working with her made such a difference to me. She helped me explore many of the factors that may have been contributing to how I was feeling, and I was able to slowly make changes that helped me feel more like myself again.

Jennifer also recommended blood testing that I had not previously undertaken, which helped us better understand what was going on for me.

Going through menopause is tough, but having Jen as my practitioner has made the experience so much easier for me.

I feel so much better that I’ve implemented many of these lifestyle changes across my entire household.”

 “Jennifer stands above them all with her extensive knowledge and genuine personalised care.”

“I found Jennifer by randomly listening to one of her podcasts and found it really helpful. I listened to a few more episodes and eventually Googled her to see if she worked with clients — which she did.

Jennifer has been amazing in not only helping me with perimenopause, but with other health issues as well.

She has been invaluable in keeping me accountable and continually tweaking things according to my lifestyle, tastes and habits, so I could develop long-term health habits that felt achievable and sustainable for me.

I have been to several naturopaths over the years, and Jennifer stands above them all with her extensive knowledge and genuine personalised care.”

“Jennifer always makes me feel heard.”

“I had previously worked with Jennifer at a different period of my life, and finding her again while on my menopause journey was an absolute pleasure.

Jennifer always makes me feel heard. I learnt a lot about myself and how and why things are happening at this stage in my life. What is even better is when she takes you through your blood tests and explains how things work and why certain things may be happening. I found that very enlightening and empowering.”

“Jennifer went through my test results in detail, explaining what they meant, and answered all my questions with lots of patience and a smile.”

“I had a session with Jennifer and found her very professional, kind and friendly, which was exactly the approach I needed during a very vulnerable time. Her recommendations were reasonable and achievable, and she lifted my spirits and encouraged me a lot.

I started to notice positive changes within the first few days. By our second consultation, about a month later, I was feeling really positive about my progress. My energy was great and my mood was very good.

Jennifer went through my test results in detail, explaining what they meant, and answered all my questions with lots of patience and a smile. She was very generous with her time and information.

I highly recommend Jennifer. Her knowledge and expertise are excellent, and I really value her holistic approach.

Thank you so much, Jen. You are wonderful.”

Working with her and benefiting from her insights has made a significant difference to how I approach my health, both now and for the future.
