Is NICU Healing Right for You?

Working with a therapist is a unique opportunity for the parents of a preemie or medically fragile child to develop tools for coping with a very different parenting experience than they expected. This different experience can be seen as something that endows parents with a perspective that is very valuable: no one appreciates even the littlest of triumphs of their children more than a NICU parent.

It is important for parents to make the time and space to process their own traumatic experience, and to reevaluate their hopes and fears for their child or children. Moving forward, by examining your experience, adjusting your beliefs and by learning how to cope with the unknown, a NICU parent has the unique ability to be incredibly strong for their child/ren, and to develop a very deep attachment with them.
