My practice has always offered my clients a highly personalized care delivery model using a combination of psychotherapy and medication management. No two clients are alike and they are never treated that way. I bring a range of background to my work from years of research and academic practice as well as specialty certifications in adult psychiatry & neurology, geriatric psychiatry, and addiction medicine. The office is always available for questions/concerns, refills, or urgent matters. All calls are returned the same day. The average duration of my clients' time with me is 18 years, which speaks to the service they receive.

Mood disorders, maternal health challenges, and adjustment disorders can each bring unique strains—yet they often share a common thread: the need to be fully seen and understood. Too often, mental health concerns are treated as separate from the rest of a person’s well-being, leaving core needs unmet. I have been in healthcare since 2007, beginning as a registered nurse, and over the years I saw firsthand how deeply mental and physical health intertwine. That insight led me to earn my MSN from Maryville University in 2020 and my DNP in 2023, specializing in psychiatric mental health.

FAQ - Perinatal and Postpartum Psychiatrists
How can psychiatrists help with perinatal mental health?
Perinatal mental health refers to the period during pregnancy and the 12 months following childbirth when individuals may experience mental health conditions such as postpartum depression or anxiety. These conditions can arise due to a combination of factors, including hormonal shifts, changes in sleep and stress levels, and relational or social challenges associated with pregnancy and caring for a newborn. Individuals with a personal or family history of mental health conditions, or those who experience complicated or traumatic pregnancies or deliveries, may be at higher risk. However, perinatal mental health conditions are treatable—often through behavioral therapy and, when appropriate, medication.

What does psychiatric treatment for perinatal mental health involve?
Psychiatrists who specialize in perinatal and postpartum mental health understand the unique psychological and physiological changes that occur during and after pregnancy. They are trained in evidence-based treatments, including safe medication options for use during pregnancy and lactation. Because symptoms can range from mild to severe, care typically begins with a comprehensive evaluation to assess symptom severity and determine an appropriate treatment plan. Psychiatrists often collaborate with other providers—such as OB/GYNs, primary care physicians, and social workers—to ensure coordinated care.

How can I find a psychiatrist who specializes in perinatal mental health?
Not all psychiatrists have specific expertise in perinatal mental health, so selecting a provider with relevant experience is important. The Psychology Today directory offers search filters to identify psychiatrists with specialization in perinatal care and allows users to refine results based on identity preferences, insurance, and location. When considering a provider, it can be helpful to ask about their experience with pregnancy-related mental health concerns, their therapeutic and pharmacologic approach, and how they coordinate with other members of a care team. It is also important to consider practical factors such as availability for appointments and insurance coverage.
