Description

  • Move beyond outdated postpartum-only models
  • Get practical screening tools, case examples, and frameworks
  • Work with overlooked issues like identity shifts, invisible labor, and mom rage
  • Recognize underdiagnosed ADHD in women
  • Support mother’s holistically – mind, body, relationships, and more

 

Mothers today are burned out, under-supported, and often suffering in silence.

Behind closed doors, they’re grappling with rage, shame, sensory overload, and identities in crisis. And yet, our systems continue to miss – or mislabel – their distress.

They need treatment that sees the whole person – not just the symptoms – and honors the complexity of modern motherhood.

That’s where this all-new training comes in.

When you register, you’ll join licensed therapists, certified perinatal mental health specialist, wife, mom, and woman of many roles, Danielle Gordon.

She’ll equip you with a comprehensive framework and the tools you need to recognize, assess, and support the mental health needs of mothers at every stage – pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond.

Grounded in evidence and real-world clinical insight, this training prepares you to work with the full emotional spectrum of motherhood – including overlooked and misunderstood issues like maternal ADHD, mom rage, and trauma held in the body.

Whether you work in private practice, community health, a clinic or anywhere mom’s need help --- or you’re a mom yourself …

… this training will give you the language, tools, and clinical confidence to show up for them with expertise that honors the full reality of motherhood.

Moms need better care. This course will prepare you to deliver it.
