Carrie Banks, M.S., PMH-C
Staff
Volunteer Services Director
Location: Carrboro, NC
After the birth of her first child, Carrie was diagnosed with postpartum depression, anxiety and OCD. It was a life-changing experience that led Carrie to switch gears from environmental advocacy to perinatal mental health advocacy and support. She started out as a PSI volunteer, coordinating under-served areas in North Carolina. Next, she became a founding board member of PSI-NC. Carrie was hired by PSI in 2017, and has since managed several programs, and is now the Volunteer Services Director. She lives in North Carolina, USA with her husband, 2 kiddos and a lazy plott hound named Walter.
