This survey is meant to gather information about your needs, thoughts and interests as a Perinatal Mental Health Provider for an online consultation group focusing on somatic and psychodynamic work.

I am in the process of developing this group as part of my work on a somatic and psychodynamic model for Perinatal Mental Health. Responses to this form will NOT be used for any marketing purposes at any point.

I want to listen and understand the needs of you as a provider; whether you would be interested in a somatic and psychodynamic consultation group, and if so, what you would like for the format and content.

The group would focus on somatic and psychodynamic aspects of psychotherapy for the perinatal population. This would be regardless of the modality you are using with the clients. In other words; you don't have to do somatic or psychodynamic work to make use of the group. The focus would be on supporting participants processing their own somatic experiences related to the work and help participants regulate when working through challenging cases, especially trauma work. This also means the group would focus less on background details of the case and the "basics" of Perinatal Mental Health and more on the immediate experience you are dealing with as a provider. The idea is to create a group container and make use of the healing powers of group regulation to help participants navigate and understand the intense somatic countertransference that can occur in the work, especially when doing trauma-work.
