On this week's episode of ShrinkChicks, Emmalee and Jen sit down with one of their dear friends, Kayleigh Summers, LCSW. Kayleigh, aka The Birth Trauma Mama, shares her vulnerable birth trauma story and details how the experience led her to where she is today. Kayleigh discusses topics like toxic positivity when it comes to trauma, why “getting over it” is not the goal, others invalidating birth trauma, mistreatment from providers, why provider-to-patient communication matters so much, the definition of trauma, supporting a loved one who went through a traumatic birth, baby’s birthday after birth trauma, and so much more! Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action! PS: There is no intro for today's episode - join us right away for the content!
