Continuing Education Rooted in Community 

At the UpWell Institute for Reproductive Psychiatry, education is an act of connection and self-care. This work can feel heavy and isolating, and we believe clinicians deserve spaces where learning is shared, relationships are nurtured, and true community is built.

Our offerings bring together multidisciplinary, perinatal-focused clinicians to learn side by side — creating opportunities for collaboration, mutual support, and meaningful professional relationships. Our hope is that through learning together, you find teammates, not just information — so no one carries this work alone.

Virtual Education

Psych Snax

Free Monthly Reproductive Psych Education | Live on Zoom

Psych Snax are short, accessible, high-impact learning sessions created for clinicians who want to stay current, feel connected, and grow their skills without burning out.

Each month, join us for a 30-minute live webinar focused on a specific perinatal/reproductive mental health topic, with practical insights you can start using with patients that same day. These sessions are designed to feel supportive, approachable, and energizing — not overwhelming.
