PMDD and Emotion Regulation: Do We Need Cycle-Sensitive Psychotherapy?

Dr. Sibel Nayman will present findings from ambulatory assessment studies on trait and state emotion regulation in PMDD, and will explore how cycle-phase-sensitive, personalized interventions could improve therapeutic outcomes.

Participants will gain a deeper understanding of:

  • The role of cognitive emotion regulation in PMDD symptom manifestation and variability across and between menstrual cycles.

  • Why conventional psychotherapy may fall short for patients with PMDD, particularly when targeting stable traits.

  • Practical considerations for adapting psychotherapy to align with the dynamic symptom nature of PMDD - including how these insights may be applied to approaches to other mental disorders with premenstrual symptom exacerbation, such as Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
