Nancy Siskowic, RN, MSN, NP

Nancy is both a Psychiatric/Mental Health and Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner. She is also a Nationally Certified Menopause Practitioner with North American Menopause Society. For the past 27 years her primary work has been providing hormone consults to mid-life/menopausal women, as well as providing psychotherapy. Her background includes being a Mind/Body Educator with the Deepak Chopra Center for Well Being, and possessing a Certificate in the Art of Spiritual Direction from Loyola Marymount University, CA. She was a guest on Good Morning America’s menopause special, and on Lifetime Cable Chanel's ‘New Attitudes’ special on peri-menopause. She has lectured extensively both nationally and locally on menopause issues. Her article “Hot Flash! Hormonal Alchemy During the Menopause Transition” was published in PRESENCE, the International Journal of Spiritual Direction in December, 2008.

Nancy is currently in private practice as a menopause practitioner in Palos Verdes Estates, CA. In June 2017 she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Her incredible journey of fear, stopping her estrogen, doing research, and then her eventual return to hormones provides the stimulus for this memoir.
