KAPS
Your Community Partners
KAPS (Kingston Area Pregnancy and Postpartum Professionals Network) is a collective of community providers dedicated to supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. Each practitioner brings a holistic approach to care—recognizing not only the physical needs of these transitions, but also the significant mental and emotional weight they carry. Together, KAPS offers a connected network of resources designed to help families feel supported, understood, and well cared for at every stage.
Your Mental Health Team
The KAPS Mental Health practitioners specialize in supporting the emotional and psychological transition of pregnancy, birth, and early family building. With a deep understanding of how transformative—and sometimes overwhelming—these moments can be, they offer compassionate, trauma-informed care to help families feel grounded and supported. As partners of the Birth Reflection Tool, they also help guide meaningful processing of birth experiences, ensuring families have the space and support they need to heal, grow, and thrive.
