Session 2: Weaving CranioSacral Therapy and Birth Psychology for Conception, Pregnancy, and Birth with Carol McLellan, CMT, CST-D, CD
September 26, 2021 @ 12:00 PM - 3:00 PM
This is the second session in a two-part workshop.
APPPAH and Upledger Institute International are Partnering to Offer this Two-Day Workshop on how CranioSacral Therapy and Birth Psychology integrate.
This workshop is for CranioSacral therapists seeking to learn more, including how to integrate Birth Psychology concepts into their practice and is also for birth practitioners and healthcare professionals looking to understand the benefits of CranioSacral Therapy for mothers and babies.
Note: “CranioSacral Therapy” is a brand name referring to a specific body of knowledge, while CranioSacral “therapists” is describing a type of professional and therefore “therapists” does not need to be capitalized (per UII). We are using “Birth Psychology” in the same way “CranioSacral Therapy” is used to refer to a specific body of knowledge, so I think it warrants capitalization too. We would not capitalize “birth psychologists” as it is descriptive term for a type of professional.
