About this listen

Today we’re getting into the important topic of what to do when someone you know may be suffering from Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorder (PMAD). What’s appropriate to say? How can you approach them? What kind of support is best to offer? To have this conversation today with me on Yoga| Birth| Babies I have Paige Bellenbaum. Paige is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and is the Founding Director and Chief External Relations Officer at The Motherhood Center of New York. Paige attended UCLA as an undergraduate and received her MSW from the Columbia School of Social Work. After her first child was born, Paige suffered from severe postpartum depression and anxiety that nearly ended her life. However, once she began to heal, she became committed to fighting for PMAD education, screening, and treatment so that no more women would have to suffer silently. She drafted legislation in New York State championed by State Senator Liz Krueger, mandating hospitals to provide education on PMADs and strongly encourage screening of all new and expecting mothers. This bill was signed into law in 2014. She has continued to be an outspoken maternal mental health advocate and clinician and uses her story as a tool for change. Anyone who works in the perinatal world is going to find this conversation useful and eye-opening. I hope you enjoy learning about this crucial subject.
