Struggling with a Past Abortion? We Can Help.

Millions of women and men in the U.S. have had abortions. Many are unhealed and do not know that they have an opportunity to work through their experience and loss.

The psychological ramifications of having an abortion may include depression, grief, anxiety, lowered self-esteem, regret, suicidal thoughts and behavior, sexual dysfunction, avoidance of emotional attachments, flashbacks, or substance abuse.

Our counselors do not attempt to fit each person into a category. Grief from a loss is a human condition and should be treated with respect and compassion. Because each individual experiences loss at different paces and times, our counselors work with clients to develop an individualized plan to work through their presenting needs. Our professional counselors provide a treatment approach that meets each person where he or she is.

Our confidential counseling is free of charge. To schedule an appointment, call 504.831.3117 in New Orleans or 225.663.6470 in Baton Rouge. Walk-ins are also welcome during our business hours.
