There are many commonalities among people who are trying to conceive, pregnant, postpartum, and perimenopausal. At each one of these stages, a combination of hormonal changes, relationship and role changes, identity changes, and psychological changes all take place at one time. This is a lot of stress for a person to cope with all at once, and the BRIA team of professionals is experienced in helping people navigate these complex times. Often people need a combination of therapy, other professional support such as sleep, nutrition or parenting help, hormonal assessments, and possibly medication to address mental health issues. BRIA offers comprehensive treatments in one place to help those who are struggling during these vulnerable life stages.
BRIA was created to provide evidence-based, comprehensive mental health care services to people who are struggling with depression, anxiety and stress across reproductive life stages; while trying to conceive, during pregnancy, postpartum, during early days of parenting, and through the menopausal transition. BRIA welcomes gender diverse individuals who are struggling with mental health issues throughout these life stages.
BRIA is not a crisis service. The BRIA platform and patient responses to symptom questionnaires are not monitored 24/7. We are not able to provide services to people who have active suicidal thinking or are in an active manic or psychotic episode. If you are having severe symptoms, please go to an Emergency Room, call 911 immediately, or contact Crisis Services Canada at 1-833-456-4566.
BRIA is also unable to provide care for people actively struggling with substance abuse issues or intoxication and withdrawal. To find suitable addiction services, please go to
Currently, BRIA is only able to offer healthcare services to people who are living in Ontario and who have a valid Ontario Health Card. Please add your name to our email list so that you can receive BRIA updates and information, and we will let you know when the BRIA Team is presenting free, educational webinars that are available to everyone.
We suggest that you start your journey with BRIA by doing a MINI Mental Health Assessment with one of our Care Coordinators. That way, the BRIA team will have a sense of what you are struggling with and will be able to point you in the right direction. This means that we can match you with the right type of treatments for the problems that you are dealing with at this time.
BRIA does not offer a free session to meet the therapists. We have gathered a wonderful team of care providers and therapists at BRIA. All of our health care providers are licensed, vetted, experts in women’s mental healthcare. If you are unsure of the type of service or provider who can best help you, we suggest you start with a MINI Mental Health Assessment by one of our BRIA Care Coordinators who will create a personalized Care Plan for you. This plan can help you find the services that may be most helpful, based on your stage, your symptoms, and specific concerns.
