Beyond The Birth Story

Episode 28 | Therapy, Trauma & Tenderness with Kelsey Bouck

Episode 28

In this deeply moving and insightful episode, we sit down with Kelsey Bouck, a trauma trained Registered Provisional Psychologist, to explore the emotional and psychological landscape of birth trauma and baby loss. Together, we unpack what trauma looks like in the perinatal space, how grief can manifest in the body and mind, and the importance of compassionate, trauma-informed care for birthing parents.

Kelsey also touches on therapy for adolescents, identifying your values and more! 

Whether you've experienced loss personally, support someone who has, or work within maternal health, this conversation offers validation, understanding, and hope. We discuss the role of therapy, how to begin healing when the path feels impossible, and why naming and acknowledging trauma is a crucial part of recovery.

This episode is a gentle invitation to sit with the hard truths, hold space for the pain, and move toward healing — one breath at a time.
