I know this is an old thread. But, Footer did the same to me. Completely blindsided by it, too. No forewarning, never a concern about his ability to deliver or handle the high risk. He also did not have a plan in place for a transfer.

There are several threads with recommendations, although of course not all patients will gel with all therapists.

I didn’t post in the above thread, but Joan Lieberman has been excellent for me. I was referred to her after a nonviable diagnosis with my first pregnancy, and I’ve continued to see her. I find her smart, caring, responsive, and practical. I resisted taking any drugs for PPA for a long time, and she respected my choice. She didn’t push the drugs at all. I eventually decided to take them, as I was really struggling after a traumatic event, and it was a godsend. But I’ve done a lot of therapy around my anxiety as well.

Here’s her info, if you want it. There are other recs in the thread as well.

Thank you! Do you have recommendations for a PPD specialist? I've not had time to look one up. - OP

Where do you live?

Gee, I can't imagine why he might delete a thread that is reported for that reason...
