Pregnancy and Postpartum Mental Health with Perinatal Psychologist Katie Lazaris
In today’s episode of Hera Health Hub, we interview the lovely Katie Lazaris a Perinatal Psychologist and Mum from The Mummy Psychologist to explore pregnancy and postpartum mental health and the importance of perinatal psychology. Katie supports women Australia-wide during conception, throughout pregnancy, and post-partum until their youngest child is three years old.
In this episode, we dive into the differences between the baby blues and postnatal depression, what birth trauma really means, and the common misconceptions she sees in her practice. Katie also shares signs that new mums (and their loved ones) should watch out for, coping strategies for feeling overwhelmed, and how partners and family can best support a mother struggling with her mental health.
This episode is jam packed with invaluable information and support for those in the postpartum period of life. We learnt soooo much from this episode and we hope you do too!
Katie also shares her “Kitchen Confession” in our segment where we share funny or embarrassing kitchen mishaps. From burnt dinners to culinary disasters, we embrace the imperfect moments and find humour in the kitchen.
