Our owner, Leeann and clinician, Elizabeth are passionate about supporting families navigating their parenting journeys. They are trained in working with clients who are experiencing, or have experienced:

• Postpartum Depression

• Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorder (PMADs)

Postpartum Depression & Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs)

Rates of Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders has risen significantly over the past 5 years, and at Mala Mantis Counseling we want to meet the unique needs that each family may have in navigating the complexities of the journey into parenthood.

Leeann has earned her certification in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) through PostPartum Support International, and both she and Elizabeth have taken multiple advanced trainings in Perinatal Anxiety, Depression and Rage.

They are trained in the utilization of various assessment tools, such as the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS), Personal Health Questionnaire (PHQ) and other standardized assessments to gauge the severity of symptoms you’re experiencing, and determine if you meet the criteria for these diagnoses.

Individual, Couples and Group Work

Leeann and Elizabeth offer individual and couples therapy to support parents to address thoughts, feelings, concerns, excitement and everything in between! They focus on the individual needs of their perinatal clients, and work to connect them with community resources and referrals that will build their community and tribe, giving them the most supportive birthing and parenting experiences as possible.

Leeann has formulated Moms Unplugged, a community for moms to come together, discuss all things motherhood in a supportive, authentic environment, in a variety of ways. In addition, she offers a monthly group for birthing people navigating pregnancy after the experience of a loss.

If you, or anyone you know needs support in connecting with resources, referrals, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
