PMAD. Because Silence Hurts
Post-partum depression has a new name, PMAD, perinatal mood and anxiety disorder. PMAD impacts mothers, fathers, babies, families, and those they share life with. If you've ever struggled with strong emotions around pregnancy or motherhood. If you've ever wondered how a mom could disengage, rage, worry beyond worry or other behaviors, listen to this episode with guest, Paige Christian. She offers excellent information, compassionate understanding, and doable action to help moms and their families thrive in the face of PMADs. Barriers like stigma, fear, and unreliable screening measures increase suffering. Care and support are available. Moms and their families do not have to suffer alone.
Paige is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the states of IL and KY. She's a Certified Family Trauma Professional through the International Association of Trauma Professionals, trained in EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) for treating simple and complex trauma from The EMDR Institute. She also has specialized training from Postpartum Support International (PSI) in perinatal/maternal mental health, including pregnancy loss, infertility, postpartum depression and anxiety, and traumatic birth experiences.
