Episode 30 | When Birth Breaks You: Healing After Trauma and Loss with Caitlin Silverstein
In this deeply compassionate episode, we sit down with a birth trauma and perinatal loss therapist to explore the complex emotional landscape that follows pregnancy loss, stillbirth, and traumatic birth experiences. With years of clinical experience and a heart rooted in empathy, Caitlin shares how trauma shows up in the body, the importance of validating grief, and the pathways to healing that are unique to each individual and family.
We discuss the gaps in postpartum care, how partners are often overlooked in the grieving process, and what true trauma-informed support looks like for those navigating the heartbreak of loss. Whether you're a bereaved parent, a birth professional, or simply someone seeking to understand the depth of this experience, this episode offers tender insights and tools for supporting yourself and others through unimaginable pain. This is an essential conversation for anyone who believes in the power of compassionate care.
