Meet Lorena Koenig, MSW, RSW

In-person in Calgary & Virtual Across Alberta

Are you feeling lost in the fog of perimenopause, exhausted from managing chronic pain, or frustrated that no one seems to understand what you're going through?

I work with women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s who are silently struggling with hormonal changes, fatigue, body pain, and emotional burnout. Whether you’re managing fibromyalgia, autoimmune disease, or mood swings no one warned you about—you're not imagining things, and you're not alone.

Our sessions are a safe space to be seen, validated, and supported. We’ll work together to find strategies that bring you clarity, comfort, and renewed energy for this next chapter of life.
