Birth Story Healing

Your Birth Story is Important.

"For many women, the experience of giving birth and becoming a mother evokes strong memories and a range of emotions. It is one of the most powerful and profound events of your life, and, no matter the outcome, it can be infused with negative feelings. In our culture, “healthy mother, healthy baby” may be considered the only thing of value, yet what happened to you matters." ~ Pam England, Birthing From WIthin 

What is emotional birth trauma?

Anyone who gives birth or witnesses a birth (a birthing mother, father, or birth attendant) can experience emotional birth trauma.  They may feel deep sadness, regret, anger, shame, grief, blame, numbness, or disappointment about event(s) that happened surrounding the birth.  While some people avoid thinking about certain parts of the birth, others mentally re-play moments over and over again, wondering what should have been done differently.  They may try to sort it out on their own or just brush it off.  And while talking about it, swapping stories, or venting with similarly wounded moms may provide temporary relief, these approaches do not bring lasting resolution or healing.  So, what does?

Birth Story Healing is an uplifting guided personal-growth process that brings insight, resolution, and healing after a difficult or disappointing birth.
