Booklet Orders


The mission of PSI of WA is to overcome the effects of Postpartum Mood Disorders (PPMD) through early identification and treatment, thereby ensuring a healthy environment in which both mother and baby can thrive together. To these ends we have three goals: to provide personal support to women with PPMD and their families, to educate the public concerning the nature and management of these disorders, and to promote networking among related professionals. Our core services include a toll-free telephone support line, community referrals, support groups, and educational outreach to those in our community.

PPMD affects 10-20% of mothers during their postpartum year. At least one in 10 new mothers experiences various degrees of Postpartum Depression. Postpartum complications can occur within days of the delivery or appear gradually, sometimes up to a year later.

The good news is that with appropriate professional intervention, PPMD is treatable with a combination of support, therapy, and/or medications. The prognosis for recovery is excellent.

Please access the information on this site or call our free support line anytime for help.
