We’re Here for You
After an abortion, people experience a wide range of responses. Some feel relief or closure, while others notice emotions such as sadness, regret, anger, anxiety, or confusion, sometimes immediately, sometimes much later. There is no single or “correct” way to feel, and reactions can change over time.
Confidential post-abortion support is available if you want a safe, private space to talk through your experience. You do not need to have specific feelings or concerns to reach out. And even if you felt confident at the time, you may later want space to reflect or process.
Support is available whether you want to explore the emotions you’re feeling, seek additional resources, or simply need someone to listen.
A Confidential, Respectful Environment
Our center provides one-on-one support with trained volunteers who approach every conversation with compassion and respect. Appointments are completely confidential. You are free to share as much or as little as you want, and you remain in control of the conversation at all times.
Some clients come to talk about lingering emotions. Others want help understanding how an abortion decision may be affecting their relationships, mental health, or sense of self. Whatever brings you in, our team is here to listen and support, not to evaluate or pressure you.
Understanding Possible Effects
Abortion can affect people in different ways. Some people may notice changes in their mood, difficulty sleeping, increased stress, or challenges in their relationships. Others may find that certain dates, memories, or life events bring unexpected emotions to the surface.
Mental health impacts like depression and anxiety may be influenced by factors such as feeling pressured into the decision, holding conflicting personal beliefs, or having preexisting mental health issues.
Support for Partners and Men
Abortion can also impact partners. Men may experience their own emotional responses and may not always feel they have space to talk about them.
We offer confidential support for men who want to process their experience or better understand what they’re feeling. Your feelings matter, too, and you deserve healing.
Taking the Next Step
There is no timeline for reaching out, and no expectation for what healing should look like. Whether your abortion was recent or many years ago, support is available when you’re ready. We can also provide referrals for resources like professional counseling if you need extra support.
Schedule a no-cost, confidential appointment to meet with our caring team and explore support options at your own pace.
