Reproductive Mental Health

The BC Reproductive Mental Health Program helps women and their families dealing with emotional difficulties related to pregnancy, perinatal depression, infertility, pregnancy loss, premenstrual disorder, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, menopause and perimenopause.

In addition to inpatient and outpatient services (note: you need to be a BC resident and a referral from a physician or midwife to access our clinical services) we also:  

• Provide consultations and training to health and community care providers across the province.
• Work in collaboration with other service providers to deliver quality care to our patients and their families as described in our Perinatal Depression Framework.
• Have a new CBT-based self care guide for women and their healthcare providers called Coping with Depression During Pregnancy and After the Birth.
• Develop publications for both public and professional use
• Update a list of resources related to Reproductive Mental Health.
