There is Hope & Healing

Whether your abortion was yesterday or decades ago, it’s not too late to find hope and healing. Post-abortion effects can show up in everyday life in ways you might not immediately connect to your experience — and sometimes they aren’t recognized until years or even decades later. If any of the following resonate with you, please don’t wait to reach out.

Avoidance

Do you find yourself changing the subject when abortion comes up in conversation or shutting off the TV when it appears in the media? Avoidance is one of the most common ways women cope with unresolved feelings after an abortion — often without realizing that's what they're doing.

Emotional Triggers

Do you feel uncomfortable around babies or pregnant women? Do certain dates, milestones, or reminders bring up feelings you can't quite explain? These emotional triggers are a natural response to grief and loss, and they deserve to be addressed — not buried.

Depression & Grief

Have you experienced prolonged periods of sadness, depression, or grief? These feelings can surface immediately after an abortion or lie dormant for years. You don't have to stay stuck in them. Healing is real, and you deserve to experience it.

It's Okay to Not Be Okay

Many women regret their decision to have an abortion. Others may be experiencing pain or struggles they don’t realize are connected to a past abortion. Wherever you are right now, you are not alone in this journey.

Healing from the effects and trauma of abortion is possible. You may have had — or continue to have — feelings of guilt, regret, grief, or anger. Research shows that 64% of women who had abortions said they felt pressured, 84% said they were not fully informed, and 52% felt rushed.* You don’t have to stay stuck in these feelings. Our team is here to help you find the support and resources you need to heal.

We're Here When You're Ready

Many women who’ve had an abortion carry it quietly for years — and our team understands that, because some of us have been there too. When you’re ready to talk, we’re here. Everything is confidential, no exceptions.
