Hosted by the NYS Office of Mental Health and Behavioral Health News, this second roundtable will focus on evidence-based approaches to perinatal mental health care. Attendees will learn to identify at least three program models for treating perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs) and understand key features that distinguish each. The session will also examine how mental health stigma affects help-seeking behavior and clinical outcomes in maternal health. Finally, participants will explore intervention strategies proven to reduce stigma in perinatal populations and consider how these approaches can be applied in their own clinical or community settings.
