Dr. William Emerson and healing birth trauma

I attended a conference back in October that was absolutely wonderful. It was sponsored and put together by the Doulas of Greater Kansas City.
I was happily accompanied by my two comrades on this midwifery journey.
It was presented by Dr. William Emerson. It was refreshing and informative. He is a perinatal psychologist who guides the healing process from birth trauma. He uses energy and regression therapy prenatally, during labor and in the postpartum period. He works with the whole family. He is a pioneer in the baby healing realm. He works with prenates, newborns, babies and children. He is compassionate and loving. He is a healer.
I am always thrilled and reassured when I meet folks who believe in the intelligence, consciousness and feelings of babies inutero, who believe that babies are active participants in their own births and who treat prenates and newborns with love and respect.
Some of the gems I have stowed away from yesterday are:

• Interventions do not necessarily cause birth trauma if the intention of the one intervening is clear (to help mama and/or baby).
  
• There are other folks out there who remember parts or all of their own births.
• The uterus is a memory organ. (I think of the uterus as a portal to the cosmos)

• The shape and feel of the newborn's cranium can be a sign of birth trauma.

It was a joy to be with a group of folks wanting to make a difference in the world of birth. A lift to my spirit and my hope that we are making a difference. Please check out the work of Dr. Emerson and tell me what you think.
