SUMMARY:Supporting Parents After Perinatal Loss Using Story: How Making Space for the Narrative Can Make a Difference (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:So often\, the stories of those who experience perinatal loss (including fertility losses\, miscarriage\, abortion\, TFMR\, stillbirth\, and infant loss) don’t get told. There might not be a provider\, a friend\, or a family member who knows how to sit with the person who experienced the loss and to listen. To simply let the story be and not try to fix it. Losses are such delicate experiences\, and not everyone knows how to hold them. This webinar will aim to increase perinatal professionals’ comfort with facilitating parent storytelling about perinatal loss by discussing and showing ways they can talk to parents about their experiences in a comprehensive way. \nDate: Tuesday\, May 27\, 2025 \nTime: 9am-10:30am PST \nCost: FREE \nLocation: Zoom \nPresenter: Emily Souder\, LCSW-C\, PMH-C \nREGISTER NOW\nThis webinar does not provide any Continuing Education Units (CEUs). \nThis webinar will be recorded and available on the Perinatal Support WA webinar page.  If you cannot attend in person\, you do not need to register.  Recording will be uploaded approximately 1 month after the training. \nThis free webinar is available to anyone working with families during the perinatal period and is offered by Perinatal Support WA through a grant from Strengthening Families Washington at the Department of Children\, Youth\, and Families (DCYF). \nEmily Souder\, LCSW-C\, PMH-C is a licensed clinical social worker certified in perinatal mental health with Masters degrees in applied sociology and social work. Emily offers trainings on birth and perinatal loss story processing and has written multiple books\, including Birth Story Brave\, Reimagined: A Guide for Reflecting on Your Childbirth Experience; Birth Story Held for Loss: A Guide for Reflecting on Your Fertility Experience\, Miscarriage\, Abortion\, TFMR\, Stillbirth\, and Infant Loss; and Sparks: Inspiration for Extinguishing the Power of Fear and Igniting Amusement\, Knowing\, and Trust. She has presented at the National Association of Social Workers’ annual conference and twice at the Postpartum Support International annual conference.
