You’ve hit that age and it feels like there’s no going back
From unpredictable cycles and disrupted sleep to low energy, stubborn weight gain, and moods that feel out of your control—midlife changes can leave you feeling like a stranger in your own body.
You’re entering your 40’s and your sleep, work, appetite and sense of wellbeing are disrupted. You don’t know what’s going on, and consultations and blood work have all come back “normal”. But what you’re experiencing is anything BUT normal.
You’re more than just your symptoms
Conventional approaches to women’s and men’s health often minimize your experiences and offer few solutions. I want you to have a health plan that addresses the whole YOU so that you can get off of the hormonal rollercoaster and feel like yourself again.

- Uncontrollable mood swings have your family avoiding you for half of the month?
- You've been told that you may need to go on anti-depressants, but you know it isn't depression?
- Men

- Irritability or mood swings leaving you short-tempered with the people you care about?
- You’ve been told it’s just “getting older,” but deep down you know something else is going on?
What if instead you experienced:
- Great energy and balanced moods to enjoy your day to day life
- Waking up energized and refreshed after a full night’s sleep
- Know how you’ll react whatever life throws at you and feel in control
- Decreased risk of disease and illness to enjoy longevity and a better quality of life
Redefine ‘normal’ and enjoy a healthier, stronger tomorrow.
Hi, I’m Dr. Lisa Maddalena ND, NCMP
naturopathic doctor
hormone-whisperer
I spent decades trying to figure out my undiagnosed discomfort and symptoms. No combination of medications, dietary restrictions, weight management programs, poking, prodding, or scopes could fix the issues. Then I stumbled on a naturopath keynote speaker and realized there were other approaches to alleviating my pain.
My Master’s in Nutritional Sciences and special interest in clinical nutrition has led me to focus on the sneaky symptoms of perimenopause, menopause, and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). Working closely with my patients, I identify hormone imbalances and help women bring their bodies back into balance and harmony—while also supporting men in managing weight, restoring energy, and building sustainable health strategies that last.
