Midwife-delivered low intensity EMDR-based procedures for postpartum-PTSD and pathological fear of childbirth

The lack of psychological professionals and access to psychotherapy is a recognized problem. By training and supervising midwives, Low-Intensity-EMDR therapy can be delivered in an acceptable and effective way. Expectations are reduced elective Caesareans, increased VBAC rates, decreased morbidity and mortality, plus healthcare cost savings.
