Domestic Abuse and Perinatal Mental Health | BASW England Children and Families Lunchtime Session

This session will cover how to recognise and respond to domestic abuse in the perinatal period (pregnancy through to a baby turning one). We will explore the deep impact on maternal mental health and mental health diagnosis in this period. The session also will consider the risks and red flags in the perinatal period, and look at how we can support mothers who are facing domestic abuse alongside mental health challenges.

This session will be lead by Alexia Rowley.
