Mikah Goldman Berg
Mikah Goldman Berg serves as Director of Advocacy and Systems Change, where she leads the organization’s advocacy strategy to advance policies and systems that improve perinatal mental health outcomes.
Mikah’s connection to PSI began in a very personal way. After experiencing a perinatal mental health condition firsthand, she first came to PSI as a help seeker and later became a volunteer supporting others in their own journeys. She joined PSI’s staff in 2022 as part of the Chapters Program.
Mikah is passionate about making advocacy accessible and ensuring that the voices and experiences of individuals and families are reflected in the policies and systems that affect them. Her work focuses on empowering people to use their voices, building partnerships across communities and organizations, and turning lived experience into meaningful, lasting systems change at the local, state, and national levels.
She is a fellow of the Policy Center for Maternal Mental Health and has developed expertise in state policy and legislative advocacy. She played a key role in coalition efforts supporting Maryland’s HB 1118/SB 891, landmark legislation strengthening perinatal mental health screening, provider education, and access to care.
Outside of her work at PSI, Mikah enjoys spending time with her family, participating in cookbook club, and finding any excuse to be in or near the water.
