About this service
The Community Perinatal Mental Health Team specialises in the assessment, diagnosis and short-term treatment of women affected by a moderate to severe mental health illness in the preconception, antenatal and postnatal period. The team promotes wellbeing during pregnancy, prevention of relapse and assists with birth planning.
The service is for pregnant women with a pre-existing mental illness or those at risk, and women who encounter problems for the first time during or after their pregnancy. We are a countywide team that works with women of all ages, across a range of significant mental health difficulties.
Referrals can be made through your Midwife, Health Visitor, GP or other mental health services.
