Perinatal Mental Health Care with Our Nurse Practitioners
Support That Sees the Whole You
You might be wondering:
“Is this normal new parent stress, or something more?”
“Why can’t I sleep even when the baby does?”
“Is it okay to feel this anxious, sad, or angry?”
You do not have to figure it out alone. Our Nurse Practitioners offer compassionate, evidence informed assessment, understanding, and treatment for perinatal mental health concerns so you can get the care you deserve.
What We Help With
Perinatal mental health includes emotional and physical experiences during pregnancy and postpartum.
We support parents navigating:
Depression or low mood
Anxiety, panic, or intrusive thoughts
Birth related trauma
Sleep challenges, irritability, or feeling unlike yourself
Worries about your baby’s health or safety that feel overwhelming
If you are pregnant, newly postpartum, or well into parenting, you do not have to downplay what you are feeling. It matters, and so do you.
Why It Matters
These challenges are common, and they deserve care. Without support, they can make bonding, daily functioning, and self compassion much harder.
Getting help is not about being fixed. It is about finding the right support so you can feel more like yourself again.
What Makes Our Nurse Practitioners Different
Our Nurse Practitioners bring a unique blend of medical expertise and genuine, empathetic care. They do not just check boxes. They listen.
Assessment: A safe and thorough conversation about what you are thinking, feeling, and physically experiencing.
Understanding and clarity: Clear information about what may be happening, including postpartum depression, anxiety, trauma responses, and other perinatal concerns.
Treatment: Personalized plans that may include therapy referrals, lifestyle strategies, family support options, and when appropriate, medication management.
We have experience supporting families navigating:
High risk pregnancies
NICU stays
Pregnancy or infant loss
Complex medical needs
Diverse family structures and parenting journeys
We believe mental health is physical health, and you deserve care that treats both.
A Safe Place to Talk About It All
No topic is too small, too big, or too uncomfortable. Whether you are crying every day, worried you might “break” your baby, or feeling distant from your partner, we are here for all of it.
Let’s Talk About Next Steps
You do not have to keep wondering if what you are feeling is normal or wait for things to get better on their own. We can figure it out together.

Real Life Understanding
You might recognise thoughts like:
“I should be grateful, but I feel numb.”
“I am so scared something will happen if I close my eyes.”
“I keep replaying the birth over and over.”
These are real, human reactions to a huge life change. You deserve care that honours your experience.
