On today’s episode, we’re sitting down with the incredible Kara Kushnir! Seriously, she is impressive. Kara is a perinatal mental health certified licensed clinical social worker who’s impactful support of the perinatal population is not only felt through her extensive involvement with PSI, but also through the skilled support she provides for families in her local community of Bergen County, New Jersey. We’ll chat all about HG, OCD, PTSD, seeking help without a diagnosis, dismantling misinformation, and having empowering conversations with kids about mental health - just to name a few.
