Hello, I am Kate White. I am the Founder and Director of the Center for Prenatal and Perinatal Programs, and the Prenatal and Perinatal Somatics Institute. I have developed educational and training programs in understanding the baby's experience, especially how to prevent and treat birth trauma, as co-creator of Integrated Prenatal and Perinatal Dynamics, and Founding Director of the Education Department at APPPAH, creator of the Prenatal and Perinatal Educator Certificate Program. Currently, We offer a 28 day basic training program for professionals, and a 12 day advanced program.
I also love supporting others in my field of practice, prenatal and perinatal somatics, especially combining midwifery, somatic trauma resolution and the baby's experience so I started an online school, Prenatal and Perinatal Healing Online. I am part of a rising tide that supports recognizing, reaching, and healing our earliest experiences so that humans get the best start in life. Enjoy our programs! |

Foundations Course Registration

Chapel Hill, NC
October 15-18, 2026 |
This Foundations course in Integrated Prenatal and Perinatal Dynamics™ offers the basic building blocks for working early overwhelming states that may occur starting preconception, including conception, pregnancy, birth and attachment. Often called early developmental trauma, recognition, reaching and healing ruptures or interruptions in development from this early time are increasingly seen as the cracks in the foundation of human health. Come, study, learn, heal.
Current healing science now includes overwhelming childhood experiences and ancestral patterns; the prenatal and perinatal period is the missing piece. This introductory workshop will give you tools so you can normalize early difficulty and have a skill base to help families get the best possible start and individuals onto the healing path. The first step is working with your own internal states and is vital to the relationship you establish with your client base. Our course combines early trauma resolution with midwifery model of care.

Listen to Kate on the Field Dynamics Podcast
Kate was a recent guest on the Field Dynamics Podcast where she gives us an overview of pre and perinatal care, her skillset in presence and reading the space between people, and the influence of pioneers in the field Ray Castellino and William Emerson. They discuss the body as memory, and the layers and imprints of pre-conception, pre-natal and birthing trauma. She shares the commonality of the "double bind" and a "stuck place" in life as a result of inherited or birth trauma. Listen to this an much more: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1958873/12407389 |
