S9 Ep 4: Insights on Perinatal Mental Health from PROSPER Leaders: Practical Tips for Educators and Doulas
Listen to Dr. Celeste St. John-Larkin, Dr. Sarah Nagle-Yang, and Dr. Laurel Hicks discuss and explore how educators, doulas, and other birth professionals can create safe spaces for open conversations, recognize the signs of PMHDs, and offer compassionate, informed guidance to students and clients alike. Perinatal Mental Health Disorders (PMHDs) affect 1 in 5 individuals during pregnancy and postpartum—yet they often go undiscussed or unnoticed. We’re diving into a vital topic that touches the heart of our work as birth professionals: supporting mental health during the perinatal period.
