The study was carried out using the semi-experimental "pre-post test matched group model," and the Traumatic Perception of Birth Psychoeducation Program (TPBPP) was applied. : Traumatic birth perception was found to be decreased after TPBPP was applied in four modules to women with SUD. : TPBPP is an effective psychoeducation model in the reduction of the traumatic perception of birth in women with SUD.
