what makes sistah pause different
All our care is fundamentally:
Expert-Led
Board-certified clinical expertise meets deep cultural understanding. We use comprehensive lab testing and evidence-based medicine to get to the root of your symptoms—not just manage them. Your care is guided by a provider who sees you, understands your lived experience, and has the training to treat you with precision.
1
Personalized
There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to Black women's hormonal health. Every treatment plan is built around your labs, your symptoms, and your goals. Whether you need hormone therapy, metabolic support, or a combination approach, we design a plan that works for your body and your life—and adjust it as you progress.
2
Holistic
We treat the whole woman—body, mind, and spirit. From hormone optimization to nutrition guidance, stress management, and community support, we address every factor affecting your wellness. Not ready for hormone therapy? We also offer supplement protocols and wellness therapies. You're not just symptoms; you're a person navigating a major transition.
3
Accessible
Virtual care means no commute, no waiting rooms, and no rushing through traffic for a 15-minute appointment. Meet with your provider from anywhere in NY, CT, MA, or FL—on your schedule, in your space. Healthcare should fit your life, not disrupt it. We make expert care convenient without sacrificing quality or connection.

How Care Works at Sistah Pause
Discovery Is Your Foundation
Every wellness journey at Sistah Pause begins with the Discovery Session—a comprehensive lab review and one-on-one consultation where we listen to your story, review your results, and create a clear path forward together.
From there, we guide you to the care that fits your needs:
For Hormone Support:
If you're experiencing hot flashes, mood swings, brain fog, or other symptoms of perimenopause or menopause, we'll create a personalized hormone optimization plan.
For Metabolic Support:
If hormone-related weight gain, insulin resistance, or sluggish metabolism are your concerns, we'll design a metabolic reset plan that addresses root causes.
For PCOS Support:
If you're managing PCOS—irregular cycles, insulin resistance, weight changes, or hormonal imbalance—we'll create a root-cause treatment plan for your body.
For Ongoing Wellness:
Once you've completed your initial program, continue with Thrive On, Sis™ for ongoing support, check-ins, and prescription refills.

Because we see you, Sis. Too many Black women have been dismissed, misdiagnosed, and gaslit in traditional healthcare. Sistah Pause™ was created to change that. We deliver culturally competent, evidence-based care that listens first and treats the whole woman—body, mind, and spirit. With over 15 years of clinical expertise, we provide personalized hormone, metabolic, and wellness solutions designed for your unique biology and life experience. This isn't one-size-fits-all medicine—it's care that finally centers you.

Your journey begins with a $697 Discovery Call, which includes a personalized lab requisition (100+ biomarkers) sent to your nearest lab, followed by a 1:1 results review where we map out your next steps.
From there, you can choose from our tiered programs, designed to fit your goals and treatment needs.
Sistah Pause™ is a cash-based practice with transparent pricing, and you can use your insurance for labs and medications when covered. We accept FSA/HSA cards and all major credit cards.

No worries, Sis—that's exactly what we're here for. Your journey starts with the Discovery Labs + Results Call, where we'll review your labs, listen to your goals, and guide you toward the Sistah Pause™ program that fits your needs—whether it's focused on hormones, metabolism, or both.

No! Sistah Pause is dedicated to individualized care, recommending treatments based on your unique symptoms, medical history, and personal approach to health. Not every woman needs or desires hormone replacement therapy (HRT), so we explore a full range of alternative solutions. We may suggest non-hormonal medications, supplements, and botanicals, as well as wellness therapies such as acupuncture, cognitive behavior therapy, and yoga, either in place of or alongside HRT. Additionally, we offer coaching on effective lifestyle changes, including improvements in sleep, mindfulness, nutrition, and exercise. For those who prefer alternatives to HRT, we also consider a variety of safe and effective non-hormonal prescription medications to help you find relief.
-
During your Discovery Call, we'll review your lab results, discuss your symptoms and goals, and create a personalized care plan tailored to your needs. You'll leave with clarity, direction, and next steps to begin your wellness journey.

Absolutely! We offer personalized supplement protocols, nutrition guidance, and wellness coaching for patients who prefer non-hormonal approaches. During your Discovery Session, we'll review your labs and symptoms to create a plan that fits your preferences—with or without hormone therapy.

No, Sis—you don't need insurance to work with Sistah Pause™. We're a cash-based practice with transparent pricing and convenient payment options. You can still use your insurance for labs and medications when covered or choose self-pay options that fit your needs. We accept FSA/HSA cards and all major credit cards.
