Virtual Psychiatric Care for Perinatal Depression

Virtual psychiatric care for perinatal depression will be offered to participants, in addition to care as usual, for a 12-week period by their treating perinatal psychiatrist. Virtual care will be delivered by video-based visits through the Ontario Telemedicine Network (OTN). The treating psychiatrist may request that an intervention group participant present for in-person care at any visit, and this may include need for behavioural activation, or another health-related indication at the discretion of the treating psychiatrist.
