In this episode, we talk to Dr. Dan Singley.
Dr. Singley is a San Diego-based board certified psychologist and Director of The Center for Men’s Excellence. His research and practice focus on men’s mental health with a particular emphasis on reproductive psychology and the transition to fatherhood. He conducts trainings and presentations around the country to assist individuals and organizations to enhance their level of father inclusiveness. He also founded the grant-funded Basic Training for New Dads, Inc nonprofit and Padre Cadre social networking application just for dads in order to give new fathers the tools they need to be highly engaged with their infants as well as their partners.
In this podcast we answer questions like :
Are men that have suffered postpartum more likely to face the same issues with future pregnancies?
What are some ways to help a father deal with the guilt and shame of going through PPD and feeling like they missed out on memories and bonding during that critical time of infancy?
What can the man do to feel more connected to the baby right away?
What are some of the signs of PPD in men?
What is the “right” amount of time for men to take for paternity leave?
How can we help our spouse get mentally ready to become a dad?
When do men “realize” they are going to be a dad?
And so much more! Join us as we unpack the psychology behind the transition to fatherhood and post partum depression in men.
