Even if she's worried about how she feels. Even if she and her baby are in danger.The Perinatal Patient seeks to change that. Co-written by world-renowned maternal mental health expert Karen Kleiman and her highly accomplished mentee at The Postpartum Stress Center, Hilary Waller, this book offers revolutionary, compassionate guidance into the nuanced assessment and treatment of mental health symptoms postpartum--a critical period that does not offer the luxury of time.Filled with case studies, worksheets, and handouts for both patients and providers, this invaluable resource will help you: - Increase the likelihood that patients will disclose how they're feeling- Differentiate between 'normal' perinatal experiences and more serious symptoms- Normalize and respond effectively to mothers' intrusive thoughts- Decrease mothers' feelings of isolation and help them build their social support systems- Determine when to refer a mother to a higher level of care- Navigate the complexities of infertility, pregnancy loss, and medical complications post birth- And more.…
