Childhood Trauma Consultant

Beth Tyson Trauma Consulting

Beth Tyson is a childhood trauma expert whose personal and professional

journey was profoundly shaped by her lived experience with birth trauma. As

both a mother and a trauma therapist, Beth witnessed firsthand the emotional

and psychological impact of traumatic birth experiences on both parent and infant

mental health. This experience ignited her passion to not only heal from her own

trauma but also to educate others on the long-term effects of birth trauma and

the importance of trauma-informed care. With her deep expertise in childhood

trauma, Beth now dedicates her work to improving outcomes for children and

families by addressing and healing early adverse experiences, particularly those

related to birth and early childhood adversity.
