This Mental Health Awareness month, we've teamed up with The Mental Health Coalition to bring Dr. Naomi, MHC's head of research to the Nanit Community to answer your questions about mental health from pregnancy to postpartum and beyond. If you have questions about your relationship, PPA/PPD, how to support yourself or your partner in this period and more, Dr. Naomi is here to help!
Naomi Torres-Mackie, Ed.M, Ph.D. is a Brooklyn-based psychologist who focuses on the integration of wellness into everyday life. Dr. Torres-Mackie practices at Lenox Hill Hospital, is the Head of Research at the Mental Health Coalition, an Adjunct Professor of Psychology at Columbia University, and Co-Founder of Nascent Consulting – a social justice and psychology-focused strategy consultancy. Dr. Torres-Mackie earned her doctorate from Columbia University, where she completed her dissertation on stigma management and strength construction. She is also the author of the Psychology Today column, Underdog Psychology.
How does an Ask Me Anything (AMA) event work?
- Post your question on the AMA thread
- Naomi will answer questions directly on the thread and you can come back to the community to see the responses.
- Anonymous questions: Do you have a question you’d prefer to ask anonymously? You can DM @NanitMackenzie and we will post on your behalf!
- Naomi will attempt to answer as many questions as possible, but may not be able to answer each question individually.
