Becoming a parent can be a beautiful, transformational and messy experience for anyone, and even more so when the parent is also healing from their own experiences of complex trauma. Society can bombard would-be parents with a variety of messages – both positive and negative – and sources of support for new parents can be limited, with the whole parental journey being very different to how it was for past generations.
This online seminar seeks to equip would be parents and new parents, who are also healing from their own past experiences of complex trauma, with the knowledge and skills they need to navigate this transformational life stage. In doing so, it will think about the challenges of each phase of the parental journey, from preconception to early parenthood, and consider how this journey might be different for those healing from their own complex trauma. It will also seek to teach and give a live experience of different coping strategies for each stage.
This seminar is suitable for anyone with complex trauma who is also thinking about, or has recently become, a parent/carer. This webinar will also give professionals supporting would-be and new parents, specific knowledge, questions and skills which they can use within their own clinical practice.
