243: The Relationship Between Menopause and Mental Health with Dr. Mary Claire Haver
Menopause can have a strong impact on your mental health. Unfortunately, not all providers are trained in hormone nuances or how to support moms when they struggle.
This week on The Momwell Podcast, I’m joined by Dr. Mary Claire Haver, author of The New Menopause, to unpack how menopause can impact mental health and how we can advocate for ourselves and seek effective treatment options.

We often enter motherhood envisioning joy, nurturing, peace, and love. But the reality can blindside us. Nobody tells us about Mom Rage, overstimulation, intrusive thoughts, or other mental health struggles. Unfortunately, when we seek help, we might face a lack of support, a system that doesn’t put moms first, and a world that turns a blind eye to the challenges of motherhood. We’re here to change that. We believe that moms deserve access to community, support, and mental health literacy. If you’re struggling with motherhood, you’re not alone–and you’re not failing. On The Momwell Podcast, host and psychotherapist Erica Djossa teaches strategies to help you cope with the psychological and emotional load of motherhood and prioritize your mental health and wellbeing. Erica shares the best kept secrets of the therapy world and interviews other professionals (psychologists, pediatricians, psychiatrists, fertility specialists, lactation consultants, and more!) who provide their expertise to empower you on your motherhood journey.
