Perinatal Mental Health Center of Excellence
Dedicated focus on prenatal and postpartum mental health
At Octave, it’s our priority to recruit a clinical team that represents the diversity of our clients' experiences. That's why we have created Centers of Excellence (COE's), a focused group of licensed providers who have extensive training, knowledge, and experience in treating specific populations of clients, providing specialized evidence based treatment interventions, and/or providing care for specific mental health concerns guided by best practices.
Requirements for Perinatal Mental Health COE providers
What sets these 100+ providers apart
20+ hours
of recent didactic training, dedictated to supporting prenatal or postpartum individuals in a clinical setting
1+ years
of working directly with prenatal or postpartum adults in a clinical setting
6+ hours
of continuing education every 2 years
Many new parents/caregivers continue to struggle with shame and guilt if they experience depression, anxiety, or other mental health symptoms during a time that we are constantly told is supposed to be full of joy and connection. Having dealt with postpartum anxiety myself, I know how overwhelming it can be, as well as how hard it can be to find appropriate help. I don't think our culture does much of anything to support new mothers, in particular, and I want to do what I can to help remedy that.
