OverviewWhat Therapists Need to Know About Perinatal and Early Relational Health is a vital and timely text that will strengthen any clinician’s awareness and competence when working with children, infants, and caregivers. All the chapters are written from a framework of cultural humility to support the competent care of individuals with different intersectionalities. Cultural humility involves critical self-reflection and critique of values, beliefs, and experiences, and so each chapter provides reflective questions and tools that support clinicians' anti-oppressive practices. What Therapists Need to Know About Perinatal and Early Relational Health offers practical strategies that are rooted in diversity-informed tenets and support reflection on our values, beliefs, and experiences. By embracing the wisdom within these pages, therapists can transform their practice into one that is more relational and heart-centered. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Meyleen M.

The result is an informative text for both new and experienced providers to examine how we show up for families with young children.” Mia Edidin, LICSW, PMH-C, clinical director at Perinatal Support Washington “This is an empowering and inspiring book that teaches readers how to lean into vulnerability and fully join caregivers during their journey. Dr. Velasquez’s innovative and brave shift from a relational to an antiracist lens creates space for cultural curiosity and self-reflection. If you care deeply about how you or your team shows up in relationship-based work, then put this book on your required reading list.” Dr. Harleen Hutchinson, IMH-E, executive director of The Journey Institute, Inc. “This book is essential reading for all psychotherapists who support growing families.
