A Transactional Analysis of Motherhood and Disturbances in the Maternal
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-43134-5 (ISBN)
Maternal mental illness is common, painful, poorly understood, misdiagnosed and often unspoken. For many years this condition has been known as postnatal depression. Yet it is so much more than this with countless women experiencing a multitude of different types of distress in pregnancy and for many years post birth. This book covers not only those conditions commonly known but also explores other factors such as Artificial Reproductive Techniques, miscarriage, termination for fetal abnormality, birth trauma, and infertility and how to treat them. It highlights the true breadth, depth and costs of the maternal journey and emphasises the struggles all parents can experience, no matter where in the world they live.
Written in a clear and concise style, this book will be valuable reading for TA psychotherapists and students, and anyone wanting to enlarge their knowledge of motherhood and parenting.
Emma Haynes, PhD, MSc, UKCP, TSTA-P, Honorary Research Fellow, is a relational TA psychotherapist in private practice. She began to specialise in maternal mental illness when she realised how little support was on offer for women and parents experiencing difficulties in their parenting journey. She has written articles for several academic journals about this condition and is passionate about educating both the general public and healthcare practitioners on suitable treatment. She is also a founder member of www.ourevolution.eu an international network of perinatal psychotherapists.
