Description

Honest. Authentic. 100% Reliable. This workbook will empower you to move forward, not on, after pregnancy loss.


In this follow-up to her widely acclaimed book, The Miscarriage Map, Dr. Sunita Osborn has created a secular and research-based workbook to approach the painful reality of pregnancy loss. Strikingly vulnerable, yet drawing on her work in reproductive psychology, she is unparalleled in her ability to help those who have also experienced miscarriage.


In the Miscarriage Map Workbook, Dr. Osborn offers a straightforward roadmap to help women move through the trauma and grief of pregnancy loss, allowing them to feel deeply understood, better equipped to handle life stressors, and more empowered to move forward in life. With both her clinical expertise and personal experience in mind, this workbook is filled with practical, engaging, and meaningful tools and insight that will allow readers to:


  • Develop coping skills for pregnancy loss and the intense emotions that accompany miscarriages
  • Uncover their reproductive stories and process reproductive trauma
  • Cultivate greater acceptance, compassion, and empathy for themselves
  • Work through the sense of betrayal and shame they may feel toward their physical body
  • Navigate intimacy and the unique challenges in their relationships
  • Reconnect with their purpose and values as they move forward, not on, from their loss

Each chapter includes notes, and tips that therapists, OBGYNs, midwifes, and other helping professionals can use to tailor treatments for each individual patient.

Critical Reviews

In The Miscarriage Map Workbook, Dr. Sunita Osborn skillfully clears a pathway for families lost in the darkness of miscarriage to begin the healing journey. Her approach leads readers through the process of reflection, reaching out, and resuming life after loss and also models for clinicians how to provide supportive and sensitive care for clients experiencing this specific type loss. For therapists specifically, the "notes to therapists" vignettes give insightful perspective and concrete directives that will surely enrich the work of the therapist and provide deeper healing for clients. --Hilary Waller, LPC, Program Director, The Postpartum Stress Center, co-author, Dropping the Baby and Other Scary Thoughts and Karen Kleiman, Founder, The Postpartum Stress Center, Author of The Art of Holding in Therapy

As clinicians working with moms focusing on postpartum mental health, we see firsthand the trauma that occurs with moms that have gone through a miscarriage. Dr. Osborn addresses the trauma of a miscarriage through practical, relatable, and empowering interventions. This is a must have on the book shelves of health care professionals working with women. --Caitlin Slavens, BAACS, MC, R. Psych. & Chelsea Bodie, BSc., MACP, R. Psych., @MamaPsychologists

"As a miscarriage survivor and advocate I see such a gap in care between provider and patient in providing resources and options for women going through loss, and the time thereafter- physically, mentally, and emotionally. SO many women suffer unnecessarily and anything that can help bridge that gap is a win for women grieving everywhere. As humanity moves forward I love seeing the medical community make shifts to better care for these women." ---Kierra Butcher, Miscarriage Awareness Advocate, @kierra_b_art
