MY SPECIALTIES
Women in menopause & deep life transition
Gentle trauma-informed support through menopause & menopause
I’m Bronwyn Tutty, a trauma-informed coach based in Burntisland, Fife, working with women across Scotland and online who are moving through menopause and major life transitions.
​
Menopause is not just a physical event.
​
It’s a neurological, emotional, relational and identity-level transition; often happening alongside caregiving, career pressure, changing bodies and accumulated life stress.
​
Many women arrive here already exhausted.
Menopause is not something to “get through”
Our culture often treats menopause like a problem to fix or a phase to endure. In reality, it’s often a threshold:
​
-
A time of shedding
-
A time of recalibration
-
A time of deep nervous system and identity change
​
It can be disorienting, emotional, physically challenging - and also profoundly clarifying.
Common experiences I support
-
Feeling a deep sense of change and feeling different in the world
-
Feeling unlike yourself, or like you’re losing who you were
-
Support with shedding former versions of yourself
-
Anxiety, low mood or emotional volatility
-
Fatigue, brain fog and nervous system overwhelm
-
Changes in confidence, boundaries or capacity
-
Lacking in patience
-
Old patterns or unresolved experiences resurfacing
-
Feeling unseen, unsupported or misunderstood
A trauma-informed and somatic approach to menopause
In our work together, we don’t just manage symptoms.
We work with:
​
-
Your nervous system
-
Your body
-
Your emotional and identity shifts
-
Your new relationship with rest, boundaries and energy
​
This is about learning to live in a new way, not forcing yourself back into an old one. We treat this as a rebirth of the 'true you'.
My lived experience
I know menopause not from theory, but from my own body and life.
It has taught me:
​
-
Slowing down is not failure
-
Sensitivity increases, not decreases - and its ok
-
To properly let go of things that no longer serve
-
To speak my truth
-
To prioritise safety in relationship with myself and others
-
The body must be listened to, not overridden
​
I hold this work with deep respect and compassion.
