Why This Training Matters Hormonal shifts are not only central to the physiology of pregnancy and postpartum but are also deeply entwined with psychological and emotional experiences. This 90-minute training provides an in-depth exploration of the neuroendocrine changes that occur during the perinatal period and their impact on mental health. Understanding these complex interactions is crucial for providing effective perinatal mental health support.

This comprehensive training bridges the gap between biological knowledge and clinical application, enhancing your ability to support clients experiencing hormone-related distress. You'll gain foundational understanding of key perinatal hormones and explore how rapid fluctuations influence emotional regulation, sleep, stress responses, and bonding. Learn how hormones contribute to perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, interact with pre-existing mental health conditions, and impact treatment planning.

The training includes simple psychotherapeutic skills for supporting clients with hormone-related distress and guidance on appropriate referral pathways. This training blends neuroscience, clinical insight, and psychotherapeutic skills reflection, aiming to enhance participants' confidence in understanding and working with hormonal influences in perinatal mental health.
