Expressive Arts and Healing Trauma for New Moms 

6/7/2016

0 Comments

 

And summer is upon us now already!....I am getting excited about my presentation for Postpartum Support International at the end of the month...I will be presenting on Expressive Arts for New Moms --  When a mom experiences a PMAD (perinatal mood or anxiety disorder) like perinatal depression or anxiety, a traumatic birth, a perinatal loss (stillbirth, miscarriage), infertility,...those experiences can be encoded in the woman's brain as a trauma...fortunately for us, we live in a world where we are learning more and more cutting edge research about neuroscience and the intersection of trauma-informed interventions to help release trauma and heal. I will be honored to present some of the latest research on brain science, combined with an experiential arts exercise, designing specifically for the moms we work with in our practices as therapists.... A while ago, I wrote an article for goodtherapy.org on Expressive Arts as a Means to Heal Trauma, which you can read about here. I also wrote about expressive arts with new moms here.  I am looking forward to sharing this information with may practitioners of the healing arts who work with mothers and their families, at the end of the month in San Diego. Until then... Andrea :)
