Description
Research tells us that the impact of trauma can lead to both short-term and long-term challenges. Often times people who experience trauma do not expect the ways they can feel retraumatized especially those expecting children. During this webinar we will explore how trauma can impact expectant parents during pregnancy and beyond and what supports exist during this time. This webinar is great for parents, medical staff, and those who work with families to be better trauma-informed and consider the ways we can approach pregnancy and parenting with a supportive framework.
Objectives
- Discuss the interconnected nature of trauma
- Understand the psychological and emotional impact on parents and parent child relationships
- Discuss behavior impact on parenting practices
- Breakdown trauma-informed parenting styles
- Recognize trauma triggers
