Free
Calendar Next available session starts Jun 23, 2026 at 12 pm
11 additional sessions through Nov 24, 2026

Maternidad empoderada es una serie de cuatro semanas diseñada para ayudar a las mujeres embarazadas a superar los desafíos que pueden enfrentar durante el período posparto temprano. Si bien esta clase no es un tratamiento para la depresión posparto, su objetivo es brindarles a los participantes una comprensión de las emociones normales que se experimentan durante el período posparto, a menudo denominadas "tristeza posparto", y cómo reconocer cuándo estos sentimientos pueden indicar algo más graves, como la depresión posparto. Los participantes también obtendrán herramientas para controlar el estrés durante el embarazo y el período posparto, establecer límites con sus seres queridos, pedir ayuda, comunicar sus necesidades e identificar recursos para apoyo adicional cuando sea necesario.

Asegúrese de llegar a tiempo, ya que los participantes que lleguen con más de 15 minutos de retraso no serán admitidos.

**Esta clase es exclusivamente para futuras madres. Para fomentar un espacio para el intercambio abierto y la vulnerabilidad, no se permite la asistencia de los socios. Si la clase se cancela por algún motivo, los participantes serán notificados de inmediato.**
