Perinatal Supports & Services
Our owner, Leeann, is passionate about supporting families navigating their parenting journeys. She is 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 has taken multiple advanced trainings in Perinatal Anxiety, Depression and Rage. She is 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 offers individual and couples therapy to support parents to address thoughts, feelings, concerns, excitement and everything in between! She focuses on the individual needs of her perinatal clients, and works 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 is also formulating Moms Unplugged, a community for moms to come together, discuss all things motherhood in a supportive, authentic environment. This FREE group will be held monthly, and dates will be posted as soon as they’re finalized!
If you, or anyone you know needs support in connecting with resources, referrals, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
