Not every new parenting experience is ideal. When a parent is struggling with postpartum depression or another postpartum mood disorder, understanding, expert help and support services make all the difference. Our services include:
Counseling
Clinical support groups, both in person and by phone
Postpartum doulas specializing in perinatal mood disorders
At BirthMark, our goal is to create a community of growing families. Research indicates that new parents who have a support network made up of other parents with babies may have an easier time in adjusting and may even have less postpartum depression. Our support groups provide an opportunity to meet other parents and build lasting friendships.
