"Listening to Women After Childbirth is a must-read for anyone involved in maternity care, particularly those who are involved in providing care during the postpartum period. The book combines powerful narratives from women, theoretical knowledge, evidence and practical skills to increase clinicians understanding of the psychology of childbirth. The book will be fundamental to all maternity workers engaged in the designing and implementing of maternity services for women traumatised by childbirth and for women with a fear of childbirth. The book covers detailed information about post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), outlining signs and symptoms, appropriate diagnosis and the importance of effective, evidence-based therapeutic interventions. The authors reiterate the importance of being an empathetic listener when providing care to women in the postpartum period and equip clinicians with effective communication skills to ultimately improve the care women receive…I highly recommend this fantastic book to anyone involved in maternity care. Reading it has significantly increased my understanding and awareness of the psychology of childbirth." – The Practising Midwife
