Understanding Perinatal Trauma: Three Core Tasks
with Mara Tesler Stein, PsyD, PMH-C
Note: This workshop can be taken on its own or as Part 1 of a two-part comprehensive training. You can find the second part of this training here. If you plan to take both sections, you can register for them as a bundle here.
This self-paced workshop will introduce attendees to the wide range of disruptive events that can occur in the perinatal period, teach them to identify characteristics of those events that induce ruptures in the normative developmental path of family-building, and to recognize the common clinical presentations of patients suffering in the aftermath of disruptive and traumatizing perinatal events.
It will introduce attendees to the Three Core Tasks parents face during the perinatal period (Davis & Stein, 2003), namely: 1. Development of Parental Identity for the current baby(ies), 2. Managing Emotions, and 3. Managing Relationships. Combining this framework with the adaptive information processing model introduces a comprehensive framework that guides clinicians around history-taking and case conceptualization, allowing them more nuance and specificity as they assess ruptures in the perinatal period.
This course utilizes recordings of a combination of live trainings held in 2022 and 2023. CEs are calculated only based on video runtime. Readings are supplemental.
