Patient care · Our specialty

Care for the year
that changes everything.

Pregnancy and the year after birth bring real changes to mood, sleep, and identity. Perinatal psychiatric care meets you there — careful, judgment-free, and built around one continuous relationship.

What perinatal care includes

  • Perinatal mood & anxiety Careful, judgment-free care through pregnancy and the year after birth.
  • Medication decisions Thoughtful choices about medication in pregnancy and while breastfeeding.
  • Postpartum support Mood, sleep, and identity changes after birth — taken seriously, at your pace.
  • Ongoing psychiatric care Evaluations, medication management, and supportive therapy in one plan.

Perinatal & postpartum focus

Care built for exactly these seasons.

As a clinician centered on perinatal & postpartum care, we offer careful, judgment-free support for perinatal mood and anxiety — a focus few North Carolina prescribers bring.

Why a perinatal focus matters

Your clinician, Josephine W. Hazeley, MSN, PMHNP-BC, has a deep perinatal and postpartum background — including caring for women on UNC's Perinatal & Postpartum Inpatient Unit and three years as a research nurse on the trial behind the first FDA-approved postpartum-depression therapy. She is active in the leading perinatal organizations — PSI and the International Marcé Society — keeping care current and evidence-based. As a mother herself, she brings both clinical expertise and personal understanding.
