Thank you to with for an amazing Lunch & Learn (and the delicious sandwiches and cookies)! We gained so much valuable insight into perinatal mood and anxiety disorders and learned practical ways we as clinicians can better support the families we serve. Christine shared helpful strategies for screening and referral, empowering us to take a better family-centered approach to care.

I had the pleasure of joining Ashley from Sensory Solutions on her podcast, where we discussed all things perinatal mental health.

We talked about the feeding challenges that may impact mood, the supports that truly make a difference, and why open conversations about mental health during pregnancy and postpartum are so important.

I’m so grateful for the opportunity to share insights and experiences that I hope will help new parents feel seen, supported, and less alone.

Thank you again, Ashley ❤️

Welcome, Maureen!

You may see this familiar face and warm presence around BRPC while she’s finishing out her clinicials, and we’re so happy she’s with us.

Maureen Dempsey brings over 20 years of experience as a perinatal nurse to her role as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner student. Her career has spanned labor and delivery, high-risk antepartum care, and, most recently, serving as the case manager for patients with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy at Woman’s Hospital. With a deep passion for supporting individuals and families during the perinatal journey, Maureen is excited to expand her expertise into mental health care. She looks forward to continuing her work with this population as a mental health nurse practitioner, offering compassionate, specialized support during such a transformative time.
