Happy Mother's Day to everyone who mothers!

In the spirit of Mother’s Day, I would love to share the work of Dr. Pooja Lakshmin, a psychiatrist who specializes in maternal mental health and perinatal psychiatry. She is a clinical assistant professor of psychiatry at the George Washington University School of Medicine. She recently published a guide for Mental Health in Pregnancy and Postpartum during COVID-19 and gave permission for me to share it here. 

She also gave a fascinating interview in “Self” magazine on how COVID is affecting patients, particularly pregnant and women in the post partum phase. Click here to read the article.

I love her compassion and perspective - it is so wonderful to see amazing women out there supporting other women during this stressful time in history!
