As a midwife, I’ve been privileged to witness many beautiful births — moments filled with love, strength, and transformation. But I’ve also seen the other side — when birth doesn’t go as planned, and the experience leaves a lasting emotional mark.
Birth trauma is more common than we often acknowledge. In Australia, about one in three mothers describe their birth as traumatic. Sometimes this is due to what happened during labour or birth, and sometimes it’s about how the experience felt — being scared, unheard, or overwhelmed. For some women, those feelings can stay with them and even develop into post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
In my article for Bodhi Holistic Health Hub, I talk about what birth trauma really is, how it can lead to PTSD, and how holistic approaches — like EFT, Matrix Reimprinting, and Reiki — can gently support healing and help you feel like yourself again.
