Bio

Dr. Perera is one of few clinical psychologists in the country trained in reproductive mental health. She has helped grow reproductive and perinatal services at large academic medical centers in the south and midwest regions of the US.

Dr. Perera’s practice is dedicated to helping people cope with any stress they may face across the reproductive lifespan from first period to pregnancy to menopause. She specializes in coping with the stress of fertility preservation treatments (freezing eggs, embryos, etc.), infertility diagnosis and treatment, pregnancy, postpartum, traumatic birth, parenting, and relationships in postpartum.

She is trained in several evidence-based treatments and curates a highly individualized approach that is unwaveringly compassionate, nurturing, inclusive, and non-judgmental. Above all, she believes in helping empower others throughout their family building and reproductive journeys so they live satisfying lives.
