Regarding your recent query, I was able to locate
the following information through Midwifery Today. It was a recent question
posted in their 'feedback' section...
Phyllis H. Klaus, CSW, MFCC, teaches and practices
psychotherapy at the Erikson Institute in Santa Rosa and practices in Berkeley,
California, working especially with the concerns of pregnancy, birth, and the
postpartum period. Together with Marshall Klaus, she is co-author of "Your
Amazing Newborn." She is the person you want to contact regarding this question.
At a local Southern CA/Nevada LLLI area conference last May, she gave three
sessions about this topic: Otherwise, contact Ms. Klaus for more articles/information. I also found a lot of info online. I did a search for "Helping survivors of sexual abuse through labor" in quotes. Here are a few links: Childhood Sexual Abuse and the Potential
Impact on Maternity Andrya Prescott, Independent Midwife Hope that this is helpful to you (and me..), Victoria Couldwell
