Healing from Reproductive Trauma A Workbook for Survivors of Traumatic Infertility Journeys, Pregnancies, and Births

"What a valuable gift this workbook is for survivors of reproductive trauma. Each chapter provides a step-by-step roadmap to help promote healing no matter if the trauma occurred trying to conceive, during pregnancy or birth, or during the postpartum period. Survivors are gently guided by Beth Warren's years of experience as a perinatal mental health specialist and taught insightful coping skills to manage not only their mood symptoms but also the impact on their relationships with the goal of creating a map for their healing."

"This is a book that is much needed, rich in warmth, compassion and resources for those affected by reproductive trauma. Many areas of the reproductive journey that are rarely discussed are sensitively explored with a wealth of information provided and that will support many families often left alone to struggle with trauma in silence. Bethany skillfully combines the latest science but writes in an accessible way and provides many practical tips and gentle spaces for reflection along the way. I will be glad to refer families to this wonderful book."
