Massachusetts psychotherapist Sharon Manning, LICSW, specializes in perimenopause, menopause, and midlife transitions, treating anxiety, stress, and trauma.

Most people who find their way to therapy have already been trying to figure things out on their own. If things that used to feel manageable have started to feel harder to juggle, if you're feeling less resilient than you used to, more overwhelmed, slower to bounce back, sometimes even edging close to panic, and it's starting to worry you, that's the kind of thing I work with most.

Understanding what's actually going on for you, and what you're hoping to get out of this work, is what shapes the treatment I offer.

I'm Sharon Manning, MSW, LICSW, a Massachusetts psychotherapist with a Master of Social Work from Smith College and over twenty years of experience. My hospital based clinical work led me to focus especially on women's mental health at midlife and menopause, a population that often arrives wondering if they're anxious, depressed, burning out, or losing their minds, when perimenopause has been reshaping their neurological and emotional landscape for years.

I offer a free 20 minute consultation, so we can get a sense of whether we're a good fit. I provide virtual psychotherapy across Greater Boston, MetroWest, and all of Massachusetts by telehealth, from the comfort of your own home, without the commute or the hassle of parking.

This site has several sections with more information to help you get a sense of my practice and whether it might be a good fit for you.
