Event Details:

Who is at greatest risk of experiencing perinatal depressive disorders, and what can contribute to a perinatal woman experiencing depression, bipolar disorder and psychosis?

TTAC invites you to explore this essential topic with Paige Bellenbaum, LMSW and Catherine Birndorf, MD, of the Motherhood Center of New York.

During this webinar, we will discuss depression, bipolar depression and psychosis which all fall under the category of perinatal depressive disorders. This seminar will provide a deeper dive into this cluster of diagnosis in the perinatal period. Case presentations will be shared by presenters and clinicians are encouraged to bring their own cases to discuss.

As a result of attending this webinar, participants will: 

•    Gain a more thorough understanding of perinatal depression – what it looks like and how to treat it

•    Gain a more thorough understanding of bipolar depression and psychosis  – what it looks like and what to do in the event a client is actively psychotic

•    Leave feeling more comfortable recognizing these diagnosis and how to proceed with appropriate interventions
