Comprehensive psychiatric care for women with depression, anxiety, and
other emotional concerns before, during or after pregnancy or during other
reproductive transitions (e.g. premenstrually or around menopause)
Common questions raised by women in our clinic include:
- Is it safe to take medication during pregnancy and
while nursing?
- Can I see a therapist who specializes in depression
and anxiety during and after pregnancy?
- How do I cope with infertility
and/or pregnancy loss?
- Is there anything I can do
for my PMS irritability and mood swings?
- Are
my sleep problems and moodiness a "normal" part of menopause?

in women's mental health and medication and therapy treatment options.
Our program is part of the outpatient psychiatry clinic at Hennepin Faculty
Associates and Hennepin County Medical Center (HCMC), a nationally recognized
