I’m so pleased to be able to share good news with you today about two wonderful people who work hard to help women with postpartum depression.  It’s so hard to find postpartum depression specialists, so this is very exciting!!

First, there’s my friend Cathy Dore, MA, who has just opened up her own therapy practice in California to treat postpartum depression and other family behavioral health issues.  Cathy is a licensed marriage and family therapist and also the on the board of directors of Postpartum Support International.  I know her and she’s awesome.  Her practice serves women in throughout San Fernando Valley. To make an appointment, call 818-207-0426.

Then there’s my friend Meeka Centimano, LSCSW, who has just opened up the first full-service perinatal mental health practice in Kansas City, KS. You can get medical evaluation and monitoring by a psychiatric, therapy with clinicians that specialize in postpartum depression (and related illnesses of course), and connect with other moms for peer support.  It’s so new it doesn’t even have a name yet!  To make an appointment, call 913-381-4200. The practice is located on Mission Road in Prairie Village.

It makes me so happy every time a place like this opens up for women who are struggling through postpartum depression.  We need SO many more of these!  Yay Cathy and Meeka!!
