MINDFUL MATERNAL HEALTH

Meeting of the Minds

A Professional Masterclass Series

You know that moment when a pregnant patient asks about their medication and you feel yourself starting to say...

"Well, we just need more information before we can really decide..."

 

Your shoulders go up.

The uncertainty creeps in.

And doctors, patients, families, end up stuck in limbo.

Here's what we rarely admit out loud...

That line has become our safety net.

Our excuse.

The reason we hesitate to offer treatment, make recommendations or take decisive action when it comes to perinatal mental health.

So I have created the Mindful Maternal Health Masterclass to help empower healthcare professionals working in Maternal Mental Health to make informed decisions with confidence and clarity.

Join now, because there are ONLY 25 spots available for 2026, so secure yours today!

Here's the truth

If you're only willing to make decisions when you have absolute certainty, you'll never be able to offer treatment to any pregnant woman. Ever.

Because absolute certainty doesn't exist in pregnancy. There are too many variables.

Too many ethical limits on research.

And that's not going to change.

50,000+studies on antidepressant use in pregnancy alone. So no, we don't need more data.

What we need is to get better at interpreting and applying the massive amount of data we already have.

The real challenge?
  • Knowing how to weigh risk and benefit.
  • How to hold uncertainty.
  • How to counsel with clarity and respect.
  • How to make informed, confident choices—not perfect ones.
From "we don't know..." To "we can decide, clearly, calmly and confidently."
 

That's what this masterclass is all about.

What my clients have to say!


”

The workshop was extremely beneficial and has improved my prescribing knowledge and inspired me to do more reading on maternal mental health topics and women's mental health in general.

This has been a topic I’ve been longing for in a workshop as it’s a special interest area of mine, and providing evidence-based treatment in this part of a woman’s life is so important and so poorly understood by most doctors.

I found the content was expertly curated, highly informative & addressed the complexities of medication management during pregnancy and the postpartum. I especially appreciated the balance between evidence-based guidance and practical case examples which made the material both accessible and clinically relevant. I feel more confident in supporting my patients and families during this critical time.

25 years in medicine

15 years focused on perinatal psychiatry

 

Dr. du Toit brings a unique combination of deep clinical expertise and holistic thinking about maternal and family health.

But what really sets this masterclass apart is the focus on how decisions get made in complex clinical systems, not just what the guidelines say, but how to navigate the human, organisational and ethical realities that make perinatal care so challenging.

This is high-level clinical mastery for practitioners who are ready to lead, consult, and make confident decisions in the most complex situations.
