Post-Abortion Counseling
Following an abortion, each person will feel a variety of emotions and respond to the situation in a variety of ways. While many people don't feel the need to discuss after an abortion, for some it can be helpful to express their feelings after treatment.

There is no right or wrong way to feel about any experience with pregnancy or abortion, even if the majority of those who have them describe sensations of relief. Finding a friend who won't judge you in order to talk about your thoughts might be challenging in a culture that makes individuals feel guilty and shameful for choosing abortion. This sort of counseling may be appropriate for you if you want time to analyze and work through your experience with and feelings related to your abortion or pregnancy or if you're looking for further assistance. People who have undergone abortions are eligible for this brief counseling program.

Abortion Information-Only Consultation
Abortion is a topic on which there is a lot of false information. Abortion information-only consultations give you time to think about your options, provide reliable medical information, and put you in touch with supportive, empowering, and choice-affirming services. This service's goal is to equip you with the knowledge you need to decide for yourself whether or not abortion is the best course of action, not to influence you in any specific manner. Only you have the power to decide whether to continue your pregnancy or terminate it.
