Are you struggling following a past abortion? Difficult and painful emotions can surface, sometimes years afterwards. Many clients come to us because they feel conflicted, sad, or unsettled after an abortion. Disenfranchised grief which can occur following a loss such as an abortion, can leave someone feeling alone, misunderstood and overwhelmed.
For immediate support, please call our partner organisation Pregnancy Crisis Helpline where our trained helpers will be there to listen and support you. They will also be able to help you access additional support if needed.
