In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Maria Dona, MD, a leading perinatal psychiatrist, to discuss the mental health challenges of the perinatal period (before, during and postpartum).
Dr. Dona shares her expert insights on postpartum depression, anxiety, and the impact of stress and sleep on mental health. We also explore when to seek help, how therapy and medications can support parents, and actionable strategies for managing stress during this transformative time. Whether you're navigating parenthood or supporting someone who is, this episode offers compassionate advice and practical tools for prioritizing mental health for both parent and baby.
