Whether it is managing chronic health conditions, supporting women and families on their fertility journey, or navigating hormonal challenges at every life stage, Women’s Health Week shines a spotlight on all aspects of women’s health and wellbeing.
Long overlooked by health practitioners, issues such as endometriosis, birth trauma, postpartum depression, and menopause are finally receiving the recognition they deserve from scientists, health professionals, and policymakers. At New View Psychology, we are committed to supporting women who are struggling with their mental health at every stage of life.
Women’s Health Week also helps to reduce the stigma that prevents women from accessing the care they deserve.
