The IPE – Instituto Perinatal It aims to reconcile clinical practice with training and related projects, bringing together the support of mothers, families, and professionals, both in Brazil and abroad.
We already know how important the mother-child bond is for a child’s development, but we are still far from shifting the focus from the baby to look at
Psychology professionals are also subject to high levels of burnout due to the conditions and challenges of their profession. They also need a space for exchange and listening.
Parents are feeling lost amidst so much information and unsolicited advice, often coming from people with no qualifications. They don’t realize that they need to look at themselves, become aware, and recognize their limits.

It is not necessary to be ill to seek a professional. Perinatal psychology also works in prevention, fostering a lighter and more conscious postpartum and parenting experience.
IPE is the place to care for those who care. To take care of oneself. We need to listen, inform, welcome, form maternal and parenting support networks, and bring together professionals in the field for study and exchange.
Only then can we truly have a holistic and multidisciplinary approach to the delicate issues of perinatality, postpartum, and parenting.
Pregnancy is one of the most important periods in a woman's life, as she will undergo intense transformations. Pregnancy is also the time to prepare emotionally for the arrival of the baby and all the changes that will come.
It’s curious how a woman’s emotional health still takes a back seat during such a delicate time, with the arrival of a baby.
The changes during pregnancy are not just physical, and pregnancy is the stage in a woman’s life when she is most susceptible to mental illness. The idea of a happy and fulfilled woman is far from reality, even for those who have a risk-free and healthy pregnancy. Prevention, psychological support, and early treatment help avoid further harm to the mother-baby dyad.
