Menopause brings serious health risks yet most of us do not receive information or treatments to mitigate these risks.
As a busy mother of daughters, my perimenopause health challenges led me to a deep dive into the evidence. Taking the Menopause Society certification exam was the obvious next step and HeyElli, a modern menopause practice was born.
As a Yale graduate, I am obsessed with the latest evidence. I intentionally develop mentoring relationships with other menopause providers so I can bring both the art and the science of modern menopause care to my clients.
My clients want to live vibrant active lives, and appreciate a personalized approach.
"Midwifing menopause" means education about options, hormone balance insights, and holistic guidance around nutrition, movement, mindset, sexuality, and sleep.
I am a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, a Certified Nurse Midwife, and a professor of Nursing.
“THERE IS HOPE! I am so grateful to have found Sarah Shealy. With a huge lack of education/care for women entering this transition (I am 2 years post menopause), I had suffered many symptoms that I had "blamed" myself for. Had my normal GYN been better versed in this NORMAL period of life, I could have potentially avoided years of feeling subpar. Luckily this is not the end of the story & I know that I am now on the path to a wonderful new chapter. Thank you Sarah for your wise guidance.”
