Signs this deserves a mental health assessment.
You don't have to be in crisis to qualify for care.
What a first appointment actually looks like
A full one-hour video visit with an Alberta physician. They ask about what's been happening, how long it's been going on, and what you've already tried. Nothing is decided without you, and follow-up appointments are unlimited.
- A full hour with your physician, not a 5-minute triage call
- Plain-language explanation of what's driving your symptoms
- A written care plan you leave the appointment with
- Internal referral to our psychiatrists or counsellors if you need it
- Unlimited follow-up appointments, you're never left alone with a plan
Mental health care first, not a hormone prescription.
This is mental health support: your physician assesses mood, anxiety, and sleep through the perimenopausal and menopausal transition, and explains the options, therapy, CBT, sleep work, medication, or monitoring, so you decide what happens next.
If you do choose it, you get unlimited follow-up appointments to adjust or stop, not a prescription and silence.
Your mental health and your hormones are one conversation.
Perimenopause is regularly treated as plain depression, and depression is regularly dismissed as "just hormones". Our physicians assess your mental health with the hormonal transition in full view, so you get the actual answer.

Same appointmentQuestions about menopause and mental health
Book free appointmentThis service is mental health support for the menopausal transition. Your physician assesses and treats the mood, anxiety, and sleep side, and where hormonal treatment is worth considering they will explain it and coordinate with the right prescriber.
It can be. Perimenopause can begin earlier than most people expect, and PMDD and postpartum hormonal changes affect younger patients. Bring the pattern you've noticed.
Physician assessment and every follow-up appointment are billed to AHCIP, no cost to you, no credit card at booking, no cap on visits. Optional non-physician services such as counselling are quoted transparently before you commit.
