Connect with Stacy Petersen

I am passionate about helping women as they navigate the complex intersection of mental health and hormonal well-being. Many of my clients come to me during pivotal life stages—pregnancy, postpartum, menopause—or while managing conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), premenstrual dysmorphic disorder (PMDD), or other endocrine imbalances. These challenges can bring emotional struggles such as anxiety, depression, or mood swings, often leaving women feeling disconnected and overwhelmed.

I specialize in helping women navigate the link between mental health and hormonal well-being. With expertise in psychiatry, family and women’s health, I offer personalized care for challenges like mood swings, anxiety, and hormonal imbalances including therapy, medication management, and hormone replacement therapy to help you achieve balance and thrive.

I understand first-hand how overwhelming it can feel to navigate mental health challenges and hormonal changes. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and understood. Together, we’ll develop a personalized plan to help you achieve balance and well-being. Please go to my website to book and let's navigate your journey together.

I have practised in a busy obstetric/gynaecology practice for the past 7 years seeing over 40 patients daily including high-risk pregnancies. I've treated patients with hormonal imbalances, perimenopausal symptoms, diabetes, and thyroid disorders. I am well-versed in hormone replacement and women's health conditions. I offer creative solutions that might include supplements, hormones or testing.
