Stop pretending it's fine.
Because it's not always fine. And that's okay.
I'm Nathalie. Women come to me in the second half of life, usually after a big life change (a divorce, menopause, a move that was much harder than planned...)
I also work with the partners standing next to them, trying to find their way back in.
I don't do scripts, and I don't do judgment. I do honest work: the kind most people only get with a friend who's known them for twenty years, not a coach they met last week.
“Nathalie has helped me grow my inner safety and speak my unconscious truth out loud. An amazing journey.”
— Marianne
“An excellent, energetic and experienced facilitator who will safely hold space for your transformational work.”
— Yelli
“So beautifully brave and honest. I've learnt so much from her vulnerability and openness — truly inspiring.”

— Gerda
“I love your humour most — your optimism and good nature and strength and wisdom too.”

August 4th, 2026 · This event has taken place.
What if menopause isn't the end of your story — but the start of your best chapter?
A free, open conversation on menopause, pleasure & power after 50 — with Sandra Carson and Nathalie Dewalhens. No scripts, no shame. Just two women who've been through it, making space for the real talk.
The Crone Rises #4 is coming — new date announced soon. Stay tuned.
About Me
Hello, I am Nathalie
I work with people who feel stuck around intimacy, their body, or a relationship that's gone quiet — not to fix what's broken, but to help you find what's actually still there, underneath the performance of being fine.
You've stopped expecting desire to come back. Maybe you've stopped talking about it altogether — especially if your body's been rewriting its own rules since perimenopause hit. That's the specific chaos of midlife hormones lying to you about who you are, and it's exactly where I work.
No spiritual bypassing. No forcing. No pretending. Just honest, unshockable work, from someone who's rebuilt her own life more than once — including her own mind, temporarily, during perimenopause — and isn't afraid of what you'll say.
How Can I Support You?
Some people need to talk. Some need to write. Some need to be in a room with other people who get it. However you find the way back to your grounded self, I'll meet you.

Your desire didn't disappear. It went underground.
One-on-one work, six sessions in, at a better rate than paying per session. Whatever brought you here — desire that's gone quiet, a body that stopped making sense, a partner you've stopped talking to — six sessions is enough time to actually get somewhere, instead of just scratching the surface.

The Sensual Crone
Five Truths About Pleasure in Midlife
Finished on my 60th birthday. Because why not.
The book nobody wrote for you when your body started changing and your desire didn't disappear: it just got weirder, wilder, and more interesting.
Five truths. Zero sugarcoating.
“Liberating and reassuring.”
A honest and most needed book about female sexuality in mature age. As a man, and partner, I found this book clarifying and liberating in so many ways. We are both in our sixties, and this has improved our sex-life immensely.

“A light to brighten the day”
It came exactly at the right time to tell me my life isn't over — it is just a new beginning of someone who is waiting to be discovered. I am not broken, invisible or discarded by life's joy.
