​

The MGH Postpartum Psychosis Project is pleased to announce that it will offer free consultations to medical providers caring for patients with postpartum psychosis. Postpartum psychosis is a rare and understudied condition and we are happy to make ourselves available to providers by email and phone for brief discussions.

​

The management of postpartum psychosis is not always straightforward, and The Postpartum Psychosis Project's expert perinatal psychiatrists are available to share their skills and expertise with fellow medical professionals, providing necessary guidance and reassurance on any matter, but particularly those that may be more challenging.

​

The MGHP3 consult line is staffed by reproductive psychiatrists who are members of the faculty at Massachusetts General Hospital's Center for Women's Mental Health and specialists in the treatment of perinatal mental health disorders and postpartum psychosis. 

​

Please fill out the form below and we will match you with an appointment. We will respond to your request within one to two business days.

​

​

​

I am a postpartum psychosis survivor, or one of my loved ones is. Can I ask questions about my or her care?

No. We are unable to directly consult on a patient’s care unless they are seen through our Center.

​

Is there a consultation fee for these discussions?

No. The consultation is offered free of charge.

​

How is the service carried out?

Providers may submit a consultation request below, which will be shared with a faculty member from the Center for Women’s Mental Health at Massachusetts General Hospital. The faculty member will then contact the requesting provider by phone or email.

​

How quickly should I expect to hear back from a clinician?

We aim to answer queries in 1-2 business days, however more time may be necessary.
