mental health conditions before, during and after pregnancy. Through a
collaboration between the Pickup Family Neurosciences Institute at Hoag,
and Women’s Health Institute, our goal is to ensure healthy outcomes
for both mothers and babies.
What Services We Offer
Our program includes an outpatient clinic where expectant and new moms
with various mental health conditions can meet with a psychiatrist, licensed
marriage and family therapist or a licensed clinical social worker to
receive the care they need or be connected to local resources.
