Being a Dad with Wisdom with Adam Angel

Adam Angel, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, explains the importance of inclusion and  recognition for fathers as the baby's parent, as the support person for their partner or spouse, as well as a  separate individual by medical professionals and birth professionals. Adam and Michelle discuss that 10% of men can experience perinatal mood disorders such as depression and anxiety and how that can manifest in fathers. Adam also shares the online parenting workshops that he founded and co-facilitates for fathers. His Dads With Wisdom workshop groups seek to build on men's knowledge, skills, and instincts of fatherhood by placing men into teams of potential or current fathers where they can connect, share and receive support from each other and Dad's With Wisdom staff with the goal of becoming wiser dads. The group workshops are structured with 1 or 2 topics per workshop. The workshops are interactive and promote discussion between members so everyone is able to share their experience and wisdom. There are workshops for soon-to-be dads,  first-time dads (newborn - 1 year),  and dads with toddlers ages 1-3."I think that a lot of the experience that men have is that unfortunately, and this was my experience too, a lot of our medical professionals aren't supporting the partner in the room with the intention of supporting the birthing partner, which they should in giving them focused attention at those prenatal appointments, they end up pretty clearly ignoring the dad. It's just an experience that feels very shared across many men."— Adam Angel  About Adam Angel, LCSW-C, LICSW:Adam is a clinical social worker with 15 years of experience working with youth, adults, and families.

136 Dads with Wisdom with Adam Angel

When families experience pregnancy and infant loss, the focus and support is most often directed towards moms. Yet, this can leaves fathers to navigate their grief silently and with few resources. In this episode, Adam Angel, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, candidly shares about the loss of their first child at 22 weeks of pregnancy and how that inspired him to create an online support group for grieving fathers. Adam explains that men and women can grieve differently, how childhood trauma can impact how someone grieves, as well as tips for bereaved couples. "This birth loss, perinatal loss is really a *disenfranchised grief. It's one that no one wants to talk about. That it's difficult for other folks in the space to be there. There's no ritualization in general, no wider community. It feels hidden, in like, we don't want to burden others with it. Whereas, any other losses are recognized and even celebrated in some cultures, right? This is one that doesn't feel that. It feels so hard for anyone to be present with you."—Adam Angel, LCSW-C, LICSW*Disenfranchised grief is a term describing grief that is not acknowledged as legitimate by society. For example, a loss may be seen as too small or the relationship too distant to justify grieving. Traditional forms of grief are more widely recognized and supported. There are few support systems, rituals, traditions, or institutions such as bereavement leave available to those experiencing disenfranchised grief. Even widely recognized forms of grief can become disenfranchised when well-meaning friends and family attempt to set a time limit on a bereaved person's right to grieve.Source: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disenfranchised_grief About Adam Angel:Adam Angel is a licensed clinical social worker with 15 years of experience working with youth, adults, and families.
