64. Military Service and Mental Health: Permission to Speak Freely

Patience Riley, LPC, PMH-C, is a perinatal mental health specialist who bridges the gap between clinical expertise and somatic wellness. With 14 years of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor, Patience offers a multifaceted approach to healing by weaving together her roles as a therapist, RETAIN Parental Leave Coach, and 200 HR Registered Yoga Teacher specializing in prenatal care. Patience's career is defined by her work in high-impact settings, including psychiatric hospitals, crisis intervention, and military installations.

As a military spouse, she brings a deeply personal understanding of the unique challenges facing service members and their families. Patience channels this dedication into her roles on the PSI Georgia Board and PSI Military Task Force, working to ensure every family—military and civilian alike—has access to the specialized support they deserve. In her private practice, Patience primarily supports clients during the perinatal period through individual therapy, yoga, and mental wellness workshops in her community.

Her commitment to accessible mental health services and somatic healing is further reflected in her role leading PSI's Yoga for Pregnant & Postpartum Parents and her work as a member of the PSI Training Faculty and PSI's Alliance for People of Color. Patience has spoken for organizations such as the Wall Street Journal Podcast, the Policy Center for Maternal Mental Health, the Service Women Action Network, and the Maternal Mental Health Leadership Alliance. Her insights have been featured in Vanity Fair London and Vogue Singapore, and she was the cover story of Military Families Magazine. She has also contributed to the CDC's #HowRightNow campaign, Military Spouse Magazine, and Wounded Warrior Project. Outside of her advocacy and clinical work, Patience is a creative, foodie, and ""plant mom"" who loves a good festival. She loves doing life with her college sweetheart and their two sons.
