Training: 12 Hr Advanced - March Virtual

The Art of Holding Perinatal Women in Distress™: Assessment, Treatment, & Advanced Clinical Practice (12hr) is the first of its kind, training the maternal healthcare provider to consider both the nuanced nature of the perinatal client’s authentic suffering and synchronous impact on the provider’s experience. This intensive training, developed by Karen Kleiman, draws from Kleiman’s HOLDING model of intervention and almost 4 decades of experience, using lecture and experiential learning approaches to expand your clinical perspective. “There will be times when the very best way for us to inspire her while she stands on the edge of life is to sit there…to be with her. Without fear. Without judgment. Without words. Her pain is a compelling invitation to those who can sit in that space. We do so with tacit strength and reverence worthy of that moment” (The Art of Holding in Therapy, Kleiman.)
