About Child and Family Psychiatry
Specializing in perinatal & reproductive psychiatry and child psychiatry services.

The Full Story

Working with children and teens helped us realize a gap in services for adult women throughout their lifespans. Challenges with mood and anxiety at various lifecycle events can disrupt functioning: preconception and infertility, pregnancy loss, pregnancy, postpartum and perimenopause can all be times of vulnerability. The healthier women are, the healthier their families.

At Child and Family Psychiatry, we provide compassionate and specialized mental health care for women, children, and families. Whether we work with children, teens, or adults, we keep the family and broader environment in mind. Located in Riverdale, NY, we offer comprehensive telepsychiatry services across New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and Florida. 

 

Our integrated approach combines evidence-based practices in reproductive psychiatry, perinatal psychiatry, child psychiatry, medication management, and psychotherapy to ensure personalized and effective treatment. We are committed to helping you rediscover balance and joy, offering support every step of the way.

What is Reproductive Psychiatry?

Reproductive psychiatry is a specialized field within psychiatry focused on addressing the distinct and multifaceted challenges of managing psychiatric disorders throughout their reproductive years. This discipline necessitates expert care that integrates mental health considerations with various reproductive life stages, including:

 

- Menstruation
- Infertility and pre-conception
- Women's health conditions
- Pregnancy and postpartum
- Perimenopause

Reproductive psychiatrists are uniquely equipped to provide comprehensive and compassionate care during these critical phases.
