I am so excited to share my latest passion project with you: a participatory perinatal picture book called The Days Before I Met You
The back story: I originally wrote and illustrated it during my first pregnancy in 2017. At the time it was an intuitive use of art and narrative therapy that helped to channel my growing pains into something tangible during a difficult third trimester. And now, I'm ready to share it with the world so it may provide a helpful resource for other first-time expectant parents in their own family building adventures. You can check it out, purchase, and review it on Amazon here: https://a.co/d/7TM6wrz Please take a look and share widely! Sharon Itkoff Nacache ATR-BC LCAT LPAT PMH-C

The overhead view of artmaking in progress and scattered supplies beautifully captures the burst of creative energy that flowed through today’s wellness workshop. Busy, bright, layered, bold, playful! Another example of this powerful, hands-on approach to addressing workplace burnout, one team at a time!💥 #artheals #artsinmedicine #caregiverburnout #creativeresilience #artastherapy
Post by Sharon Itkoff Nacache ATR-BC LCAT LPAT PMH-C 🌷Politics is personal when your country is in crisis. Cory Booker’s historic 25 hour speech is helping to wake up disempowered Americans and remind them what they can do on a micro level to enact positive change on a macro level.
🌷Today marks the first-ever National Day of Action for Maternal Mental Health to rally Americans to contact their federal elected officials to protect the funding of maternal mental health programs. 🌷Mental health conditions are the MOST COMMON complication of pregnancy and childbirth, impacting 1 in every 5 mothers in the U.S. or 800,000 families each year. Mental health conditions are a LEADING CAUSE of maternal mortality in our country, accounting for 22% of pregnancy-related deaths. 🌷To address this crisis, The Maternal Mental Health Leadership Alliance has helped to establish two federally-funded programs that have proven effective in helping mothers get the support they need: The National Maternal Mental Health Hotline and The Maternal Mental Health and Substance Use Disorders Program. 🌷Turn your despair into hope and make a massive impact for maternal mental health in just a few minutes. The campaign is today only. Contact your elected officials: https://lnkd.in/g-dc8rtW 🌷We need you. Moms need you. Your voice matters. Post by Sharon Itkoff Nacache ATR-BC LCAT LPAT PMH-C |
