Abstract
Postpartum depression (PPD) and other perinatal mental health disorders have profound adverse effects on maternal-infant interaction and child health. However, standard psychiatric treatment does not necessarily improve the quality of mother-infant interaction. The purpose of this article is to describe the evidence-based CARE intervention and its translation to practice as Mother-Baby Interaction (MBI) Therapy to promote infant outcomes by supporting mothers' sensitive, responsive, and contingent interactions with their infants. Two vignettes illustrate MBI. We advocate that MBI needs to be a requisite adjunct treatment for PPD, and other perinatal mental health disorders, to promote maternal functioning, and positive long-term infant health outcomes.
