A clinic specialized in attending postpartum depression opens in New York

Although postpartum depression is not an issue that should be taken lightly, it has long been a kind of taboo within the maternal world.

Fortunately, there are more and more mothers who dare to talk about it and even several celebrities such as singer Adele or model Chrissy Teigen have told their story fighting postpartum depression.

And progress on this important issue continues: now a new one has opened in New York clinic specialized in attending postpartum depression.

This new clinic is named "The Motherhood Center of New York"(New York Maternity Center) and its goal is attend to the mental health of pregnant women and recent mothers, who suffer from perinatal mood disorders and anxiety.

"Having a baby can be wonderful ... but it can also be overwhelming and very difficult. At the Maternity Center we are here to support you every step of the way.", is the message we found on the main page of your website.

The clinic has specialists such as social workers and medical personnel who offer classes, support groups, advice and specialized attention. They also have a daily program for mothers who need more support and that includes different types of therapy and activities such as meditation, art and yoga.

Hopefully soon we can see more clinics like this one in more cities and countries, because definitely the emotional state of the mothers is altered after childbirth and postpartum depression is something we must attend and take seriously.
