Understanding Loss and Trauma in the Perinatal and Postpartum Period

Perinatal (or reproductive) trauma includes infertility, miscarriage, perinatal loss, complicated birth, and postpartum. These adverse reproductive events engender loss and disrupt every aspect of clients' lives. This presentation will help participants understand the losses associated with reproductive trauma and learn clinical interventions that help clients process these losses.
