April is National Poetry Month, so we've pulled together a list of poets whose collections explore motherhood and various challenges of the perinatal period. Within these poems, the writers delve into themes of infant loss, pregnancy loss, high-risk pregnancy, matrescence, maternal mental health, mothering with mental illness, birth trauma, grief, and isolation. However, these are also collections of strength, resilience, community, and recovery. At Anchor, we believe that shared stories of lived experience are powerful tools for healing, so we hope you find something useful in one of these collections.

Maybe you’re not in crisis, but something feels off. You're more anxious than usual or feel like you can't stop crying. Maybe you're saying to yourself, "I can't tell if something is wrong," or "I'm probably just tired."

Maternal mental health care isn’t one-size-fits-all—and it isn’t just for cisgender women.

On International Transgender Day of Visibility, we recognize trans and nonbinary people navigating pregnancy, postpartum, and parenting—often without the inclusive care they deserve.

Therapy Skill of the Month!

Box Breathing is a specific type of breath work. It uses slow, intentional breathing to help activate the body’s relaxation response and refocus the mind. 

We love breath work for new parents because it can be done almost anywhere at anytime—while pumping, breastfeeding, or rocking the baby. Or right now! 💜

When practicing breath work, don’t worry if your mind wanders or you get distracted. Notice that you’ve become sidetracked and simply come back to the breath.

Like many other disorders, PMADs cause symptoms ranging from mild to severe, but regardless of symptom intensity, PMADs are highly treatable. If you or someone you know might be suffering from a perinatal mood or anxiety disorder, Anchor Perinatal Wellness offers a free screening clinic to help people find the level of care they need. 

At Anchor, we offer IOP and outpatient therapy and have strong relationships with inpatient providers should someone need that level of care.
