Who writes our articles

Articles are written by our editorial team or contributed by licensed clinicians listed in the directory. Every article shows its author, and clinician contributors’ bylines link to their verified profiles — where you can see their license number and check it with the state board yourself.

Sourcing standards

  • Claims about prevalence, symptoms, and treatment are based on reputable sources: peer-reviewed research and guidance from organizations like the CDC, ACOG, NIMH, WHO, and Postpartum Support International.
  • Articles list their sources at the end, and we prefer conservative, well-established figures over dramatic ones.
  • We write to inform, never to diagnose. Every article carries a disclaimer and crisis resources.

Sponsored content

Clinicians on Featured and Platinum plans may contribute sponsored articles. Sponsored posts are held to the same editorial and sourcing standards as everything else, are always labeled “Sponsored” at the top of the article and on every card that links to it, and never influence how therapists rank in search results. We decline sponsored content that overstates outcomes or promotes a treatment beyond its evidence.

Corrections

If we got something wrong, we want to fix it quickly. Email hello@postpartumtherapy.com — corrections are made promptly, and material corrections are noted on the article.

What our content is not

Nothing we publish is medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and reading an article is not a substitute for talking to a licensed professional. If an article ever makes you wonder whether you need support, that’s a good moment to reach out to a therapist or call the resources on our resources page.
