Ego State Approaches for Perinatal Mental Health (with and without EMDR)
September 19th-21st, 2023 with Mara Tesler Stein, PsyD, PMH-C and Robin Shapiro, LICSW
Course Description
This workshop first reviews core concepts in ego-state therapies and in perinatal mental health. Building on that foundation, it guides participants to exploration and understanding of their own ego-states and how they intersect with issues that present with perinatal clients. Then, delving in depth into common perinatal themes, it teaches participants how to integrate case conceptualization and apply ego-state approaches to this work. Finally, it explores specific, complex issues that arise in the perinatal period, applying ego-state approaches. This course utilizes demo, discussion, and personal experiential exercises.
