The perinatal period — from conception through the first year postpartum — is one of the most emotionally complex seasons of a person's life. When mood, anxiety, or trauma symptoms emerge during this time, they deserve more than a general psychiatric referral. They deserve a provider who has trained specifically for this.
Tara Callow is a certified Perinatal Mental Health specialist (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International, one of the most respected credentials in this field. Her additional certification as an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and her background in acute and primary pediatric care mean she understands the full clinical picture — not just the psychiatric symptoms, but the hormonal, physical, and relational context surrounding them.
You do not have to wait until things get worse. Care is available now.
