I believe therapy offers the opportunity to become who you really are. People are often unaware of all of the factors that are keeping them stuck, creating dissatisfaction, or causing distressing symptoms. By developing a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships through therapy, it becomes possible to experience your life more authentically, feel better in your relationships, and move toward what is enriching or important to you. I provide a reliable and empathic setting where we can carefully understand the difficulties you are experiencing – leading to relief, personal growth and lasting change.

Over the past decade, I’ve seen the mental health crisis grow, while access to specialized care has struggled to keep up. Many people turn to their general practitioners for psychiatric prescriptions, which might work for some, but not for everyone. More complex cases often need careful, step-by-step stabilization, sometimes involving multiple medications. For those dealing with frustrating side effects, genetic testing can help find the right medications that are both safe and effective.

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.
