What topics does it cover?
There are five modules of learning which cover all of the topics below.
The programme is run by our core team: Trudi Webber (Training Lead), Dr Rebecca Moore (Consultant Perinatal Psychiatrist), Dr Jan Smith (Chartered Psychologist), Sakina Ballard (Community Lead) and Nikki Wilson (CEO). This year we have also been joined by Dr Michelle Tolfrey, Senior Clinical Psychologist and Clinical Director of Talking Heads.
The sessions include the voices of women, birthing people and families who have experienced birth trauma, as well as professionals who have experienced vicarious trauma. Each session also includes time for reflection so you can design the actions you want to take to make birth better.
