WHY DIDN’T ANYONE TELL ME?

Prevention and Treatment of Birth Trauma That Includes The Baby

With Kate White
While an increasing number of practitioners works with a trauma informed approach, it is often confusing to track birth trauma in families.

There are many experiences in the room when a family comes for treatment: the birthing parent, partner, baby and staff. There is also your experience as the practitioner and the therapeutic space you hold. It takes a mature nervous system to track and heal birth trauma, one that understands autonomic nervous system responses, near death sequences, bodily felt reactions and responses, tracking pacing associated with survival states and more.

In this course, Kate White defines birth trauma for birthing parents, babies and staff and offers skills to prevent and heal which include neuroscience, prenatal and perinatal somatics, and trauma healing, and specific tools for practitioners to support optimal health in the earliest layers of our experience.
Kate White is a Craniosacral and massage therapist as well as a prenatal and early childhood educator.  Her work combines somatic therapy with brain development to help give families with babies and small children the best possible start.

This course offers lecture and case relational and somatic exercises for participants to improve outcomes for birthing families. You will get:

  • an overview of birth trauma with definitions and statistics, and why healing birth trauma right away is important for lifelong health of the baby and family
  • additional information about conditions and patterns that are impacting birthing families
  • granulated descriptions of what happens for birthing parents, babies and staff from a prenatal and perinatal somatic perspective (the sequence)
  • descriptions of a few prenatal and perinatal somatic patterns from birth interventions
  • an exploration of prenatal and perinatal somatic tools

module three

Pre- and Perinatal Somatic Tools to Prevent and Heal Birth Trauma

Many women are confused and blame themselves for what happened at their difficult births as no one is there naming what is happening for them and the baby. However, practitioners working with Kate’s approach have discovered that birthing parents get better almost immediately with the tools that used when addressing birth trauma.

In this module, a list of tools are presented to help both families and staff make sense of what happened without re-traumatisation.
