Post Abortion Support

After I had the abortion it was like I was holding this big secret. I didn’t want anyone to know because I felt guilty and so ashamed. There’s always this sense of loss and I struggle with sadness.” Centre Client

Shannon’s story. “There was no other support offered.”

While some women experience a sense of relief following an abortion, others may struggle with difficult emotions. These feelings can surface right away or emerge months—or even years—later.

When you contact a pregnancy care centre, or connect online, you will meet trained people who want to help. Both offer a safe, confidential, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore and process the emotions that may come with abortion loss.

You don’t have to face this alone.

If you would like to talk to someone about your abortion experience, many pregnancy care centres offer confidential and compassionate post abortion support. Click here to find a pregnancy care centre near you, or contact us for more information.

Whatever your experience has been, you may have questions or emotions you want to explore privately. We’ve created a series of short videos and trusted resources that you can access at your own pace.

You’ll find:

  • Support for navigating difficult or unexpected emotions
  • Short, easy-to-watch videos
  • Post-abortion resources
  • Confidential online or local support

Choose the topics that matter to you. There’s no pressure or expectation, and you can opt out at any time.

Private. Free. No judgment.
