Increasing diversity, equity, and inclusion in perinatal mental health care and research requires a conscious effort at all professional levels. Join us this month to learn why diversity, equity, and inclusion are needed now. Listen to how Dr. Fisher’s research and administrative activities address important gaps in the field.
Dr. Fisher is an Associate Professor and perinatal clinical psychologist at Northwestern University, Feinberg School of Medicine, and Associate Dean for Diversity and Inclusion at The Graduate School. His research focuses on the effects of perinatal and subsequent parental mental health on infant/child health outcomes, with a specialization in the emerging field of father mental health. He aims to reconceptualize parental mental health research to integrally involve fathers to differentiate parents’ impact on a child's medical and mental health. Dr. Fisher’s research dovetails with his perinatal clinical practice, including being the clinical director of the Fathers’ Mental Health Specialty Clinic. He also chairs the International Marcé Society’s Fathers Special Interest Group and the MONA Taskforce for Spanish-speaking countries. His research aims to optimize the health and effectiveness of the parental team to influence the child's health trajectory starting in pregnancy positively.
