The climacteric period in women over 40 has traditionally been viewed primarily in a medical and deficit-based context, associated with losses, reduced functional capacity, and deterioration in quality of life. This article proposes an integrative psychological approach in which the climacteric period is analyzed as a stage of systemic personality transformation with significant resource potential. The theoretical foundation of the study is the author’s model of seven lines of ecological thinking, MindEco, developed since 2020 and applied in psychological practice. It is shown that the development of ecological thinking reduces self-destructive strategies and fosters a resource-oriented perception of the climacteric period as a stage of maturity.
