About Perinatal Mental Health Support Groups
Perinatal mental health encompasses mental health during pregnancy and the postpartum period. Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs) are among the most common complications of pregnancy, yet they remain widely under-identified and undertreated. Support groups provide early intervention and community during a vulnerable time.
Types of Groups Available
Groups include prenatal mental health support communities, groups specifically for perinatal anxiety and depression, and professionally facilitated groups led by perinatal mental health specialists. Many groups welcome partners and support persons.
