07: Supporting Women with Postpartum Depression and Anxiety with Lyndsey
The first step to getting help, is becoming aware that there is a name to what you are experiencing, and that there is hope and help out there.
Today I’m talking with Lyndsey Proctor who owns a outpatient treatment center for mothers who are experiencing postpartum depression, and anxiety. I am so grateful Lyndsey shares her knowledge with us today, as it could be the first time you are hearing that you are not crazy, and that it’s okay to get help. Listen as she shares her experiences as she helps mothers navigate the #1 complication of child birth- mental health.
