Couples Counselling: 

Abortion counselling provides a safe place for couples to discuss their feelings around an abortion experience and work through difficulties, including improved communication and connection.

The goal of abortion counselling is to provide clients with a judgement-free, unbiased, and empathic space as they navigate the complex physical, emotional, and psychological experiences brought on by an abortion. Abortion counselling supports clients in processing their feelings and accepting their choices, while helping them develop skills and awareness around their overall reproductive and mental health.
