Stanford Medcast Episode 105: Pediatric Pulse Mini-Series: The Hidden Layers of Perinatal Mental Health

Perinatal mental health is often overlooked, yet it plays a crucial role in the well-being of families during a vulnerable time. Join us for an insightful conversation with Dr. Celeste Poe, Clinical Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University, as we delve into the hidden challenges faced by parents during the perinatal period. Explore the emotional complexities of NICU journeys, the importance of fostering attachment despite physical barriers, and the often-neglected mental health needs of fathers and non-birth partners. Learn strategies for integrating trauma-informed care in high-stress environments, shedding light on how we can better support families during this critical time.
