About Perinatal Consultation
The Perinatal Service is a resource for providers caring for patients with mental health concerns who are pregnant, postpartum, and breast/chest-feeding and individuals in need of preconception consultation. Medical providers can consult directly with a perinatal psychiatrist trained in perinatal mental health conditions and medication safety and receive evidence-based guidance around screening, assessment, diagnosis and treatment of perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. Consults may be single questions or may involve ongoing contact for complex issues. Liaison coordinators provide resources and referrals to providers for their perinatal patients.
What to Expect in a Call:
The consultation may result in recommendations for appropriate screening, treatment, or referral resources, all of which promote a trauma-informed approach to care.
For complex cases, the perinatal psychiatrist may consult over a longitudinal timeframe, supporting a patient’s care over multiple visits.
