Psychological problems in pregnancy and after childbirth
We usually consider pregnancy and the postpartum period to be a time of happiness and joy, but we rarely associate it with psychological problems such as depression and anxiety, which women often face during these stages of life. Amy Wenzel and Karen Kleiman, experts in perinatal psychology, present one possible effective and flexible approach to psychotherapy work with this group of women, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). The text provides clear and useful information that can help doctors and psychotherapists successfully incorporate the structure and procedures of CBT into a supportive approach when working with clients before and after childbirth. It also dispels myths about this psychotherapeutic method, which is often mistakenly described as rigid or superficial.
Amy Wenzel, PhD, ABPP, is the author and editor of fifteen books, many of which deal with perinatal psychology or cognitive-behavioral therapy. He lectures internationally on issues related to mental health and psychotherapy and provides ongoing supervision to clinical psychologists, social workers, and psychiatric nurses.
Karen Kleiman, MSW, LCSW, is a well-known international expert on postpartum depression. She is the founder of The Postpartum Stress Center, a leading center for treatment and professional education in the field of prenatal and postnatal depression and anxiety. She has written several books about psychological difficulties related to childbirth.
