Great Lakes Perinatal Wellness is a team of experts who come together with a common dedication to the wellbeing of parents, children, and families in our communities.

You deserve to thrive, and our providers are here to support you in doing so. Our care is grounded in safety, respect, deep listening, and acceptance. You can expect our providers to consistently show up for you with compassion, humility, understanding, and skill.

We believe Perinatal Mental Health Support Should Be:

Safe

We know that trust and safety are the foundation of any effective therapeutic relationship. Healing happens best when you know that you are safe. Our providers are committed to creating a safe and trustworthy environment through clear communication, confidentiality, cultural responsiveness, and a consistent willingness to address your questions and concerns.
Affirming

You deserve to be celebrated and affirmed in all of who you are! Our therapists are committed to getting to know you, celebrating your unique values and identities, and holding a non-judgemental space for you to show up as your full self-your beauty and strength along with your challenges. We know life can be complicated, confusing and messy sometimes, and we’re here for all of it.
Accessible

Everyone deserves access to high-quality, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive perinatal care. Great Lakes Perinatal Wellness is committed to expanding access through low and no-cost offerings, accepting a wide range of insurance plans (including Medicaid), and creating sustainable employment, training, and professional development opporttunities for perinatal wellness professionals who are committed to reproductive justice and community care.
Inspiring

Family building, pregnancy, and parenting are times of tremendous change and new beginnings. This can be a great time for self-discovery, learning new ways of being, exploring your values, and charting a course for the future. Even when pain, struggle, and suffering are part of the picture, we hope that with good support you can also experience joy, wonder, and celebration during this time in your life.
