Perinatal Anxiety and Depression 

What to do when the unexpected becomes a reality? Experiencing anxiety and or depression when pregnant or after you have had a baby can be frightening and confusing. Early intervention is vital for recovery. Talking to one of our counsellors can be the first step needed for recovery.

Post Abortion Counselling

While research shows most women will experience relief post-abortion, those who experienced more complex circumstances during the pregnancy may be needing more support to cope post abortion. These circumstances may include: reproductive coercion (being forced into a pregnancy, sex, or an abortion); pre existing depression or anxiety; having limited supports; or just complex life circumstances.  If you have been struggling with upsetting thoughts or feelings post abortion, we are here to help you find a way through this difficult time.
