Meet Lani

My name is Lani Gomez Pickard and I am a licensed clinical social worker (LICSW) who is certified in perinatal mental health care (PMH-C).

I am passionate about supporting people in all steps of their perinatal journey, from trying to conceive, through pregnancy, birth and postpartum. I am confident working with people processing loss and/or trauma, those who believe they might be experiencing perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, and those searching for support and guidance during the pregnancy, birth, and postpartum period.
