TRIGGER WARNING: Intrusive Thoughts
On today’s episode, we’re chatting with Samantha Reaves, survivor of a trifecta of PMADs (PPA, PPD, PPOCD), staff on the Communication and Development teams here at PSI, and she’s also local support volunteer in her state of North Carolina. Transitioning to parenthood during a global pandemic did not go how she had imagined. So, when Samantha reached out for help from her health care provider and was given very few resources, she knew something needed to change. We’ll hear about how PSI helped facilitate her recovery through online support groups as well as finding local support, and how she’s supporting folks in perinatal period now.
