Miscarriage – Giving a Voice to a Silent and Complex Grief

How to Support Mothers and Parents in Sudden Loss of Pregnancy

With Edy Nathan
The emotional toll of pregnancy loss is always profound and most women experience at least a degree of anxiety, stress and symptoms of depression. This may be particularly true for those who struggled with their fertility prior to conceiving.

How can we be of support to a mother or parents after a pregnancy loss? How do we make the transition from being or working with someone filled with the joyful anticipation of having a baby to holding space for them through the pain of their loss and finally into healing and new hope?

This course is designed to help us support mothers and/or parents who have experienced miscarriage. You will gain an insight into the various aspects of the grief they go through and how the traumatic imprint affects body, mind and soul. You will learn practical exercises and tools that help with anxiety while supporting self-care and self-love.

Edy Nathan is a certified sex therapist, hypnotherapist and certified EMDR practitioner, author and international speaker. In her expertise as a grief therapist she interweaves her formal training as a psychotherapist with breathwork, guided imagery, ritual and storytelling.

In this course, you will learn to:

  • Develop a rapport with the loss of your client, friend or family member who has experienced a miscarriage
  • Understand and identify the eleven phases of grief and precisely label its emotions
  • Grief release through breath work, anxiety calming techniques and anger dispersion anchors
  • Understand the impact of  the Sexual Grief Effect

Moving from Grief to Grace

and self-love. The brain and the body hold grief differently. When a miscarriage happens, the loss of the baby and the loss of the imagined life with that precious being needs to be honoured.
