Perinatal mood & anxiety disorders (PMADs): ReMCPAP for Moms – Provider support program that links families to perinatal mental health care.  MCPAP Websitesources for healthcare providers

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs) can impact parents, caregivers, and infants in many ways including:

Less participation in prenatal, postpartum, and primary care visits

Increased risk of smoking and substance use

Increased risk for obstetric complications

Challenges with bonding and attachment

Increased use of infant emergency department, leading to higher costs

Negative impact on sustained breastfeeding

Lower likelihood of:​

Attending well-child visits​

Completing immunizations​

Using home safety devices​

Placing infant in recommended sleeping position​

In addition, extensive research suggests that untreated PMADs is can have adverse effects on an infant's development, including behavioral, cognitive, and health-related issues.

Health care providers serving pregnant and postpartum people have a unique and valuable position in screening for mental health disorders early and referring them to appropriate treatment. Universal screening for PMADs is essential for early identification and improving outcomes for parents, infants, and families. While obstetric and pediatric professions are typically associated with this care, there are many other health professionals that also serve people who are pregnant or given birth in the past year. Pregnant and birthing people may seek help for various concerns or symptoms, so it's important for all health care providers to be aware of the options for screening and referrals for PMADs

Several national organizations have recommended universal screening:

Screening for perinatal mood and anxiety disorders with a standardized, validated screening tool allows healthcare providers to gain insights about a family's situation and their current stressors. Screenings can help reduce stigma, create trust between the patient and healthcare provider, and identify barriers that may interfere with a family reaching their goals.

Validated screening tools for perinatal mood and anxiety disorders include:

It's important to normalize perinatal mood and anxiety disorders by using nonjudgmental and supportive language when screening your patients. Here are examples of phrases you can use when talking to your patients:

"Being a new parent or caregiver can be an incredibly wonderful and incredibly overwhelming experience, and it is normal to feel both."

"We know that PMADs are common in many people after giving birth, so I talk to all the families I work with about this."

If your patient's screening is negative, you could say "I'm glad nothing like this is going on for you. Since many parents experience depression, we would like to share this brochure to help you support a friend or family member who might be going through something like this."

If your patient's screening is positive, you can remind them that PMADs are treatable and that you will connect them with the support and resources they need.

You can also use the recommendations below to have supportive conversations with your patients about PMADs:

Provide positive reinforcement whenever appropriate

Strengthen parental coping skills

It is important to note that in many cultures, PMADs are associated with stigma, shame, and misinformation. Approach your patient with cultural humility to foster open discussions and a better understanding about mental health and parenting or caregiving.

Create opportunities to strengthen and expand social support networks and connections for caregivers

Refer families to resources and services that address poverty, housing instability, food insecurity, violence prevention and support, substance use treatment, and other significant stressors that become more acute in pregnancy and postpartum

Remind families that screening, diagnosis, and therapeutic support for PMADs do not make them a bad person

Counseling and therapy

Both counseling and therapy can be effective ways to help parents address their feelings, thoughts, and actions. Parents and caregivers struggling with PMADs can benefit from therapy by learning new ways to cope with stress and manage their feelings. Including significant others such as partners, spouses, and other family members in treatment can also help improve communication and gain their support during difficult times. Counseling can be tailored to meet the patient's individual needs. Counseling sessions can be held in person or virtually, either through one-on-one sessions or a formal group therapy program, depending on what works best for the patient.

Medication

Psychiatric medications can be effective in treating PMADs. If you believe your patient might benefit from medication, health care providers can call MCPAP for Moms to help find an appropriate medication and/or a therapist for your patient.

Support groups

Support groups can be helpful in a variety of ways, including:

Helping parents make connections with other parents struggling with PMADs

Learning helpful and practical coping skills from other parents

Reduces a sense of isolation

You can use the resources below to find a support group for your patient:

Additional strategies & resources

In addition to therapy, support groups, and medication, many parents benefit from other resources including breastfeeding supports, home visiting services, or doula services. Other activities such as yoga, exercise, or meditation can also help reduce stress and improve overall well-being. You can check your local hospitals or clinics, libraries, community centers, and other community resources that host parent support groups to refer your patients.

MCPAP for Moms supports providers serving pregnant and postpartum parents and their children up to one year after delivery to effectively prevent, identify, and manage mental health and substance use concerns.

Providers working with a perinatal person can call MCPAP for Moms at 855-Mom-MCPAP (855-666-6272) to request real-time phone consultation and referral to resources, Monday to Friday, 9:00am-5:00pm. A care coordinator will work with you to determine the patients' needs such as consultation for psychiatric care, local perinatal counselors, community care coordination, and more.

Providers can also enroll their practice into MCPAP for Moms to gain access to:

Trainings and toolkits

Real-time psychiatric consultation

Linkages with community-based resources customized to your patients (e.g., insurance, language preference, geography)

Newsletters

Quarterly webinars
