Post Abortion Support – Alpha Women's Center

Healing After Abortion

Whether you had an abortion recently or years ago, you may still be suffering from the experience. While some women experience relief following their procedure, feelings of sadness or regret may surface shortly after or years down the road. Whatever you are experiencing, your feelings are valid.At Alpha, we provide our Hearts of Healing Abortion Recovery Program which allows women and men to find healing from the effects of abortion related trauma.

Abortion is never an easy decision, no matter your situation. That’s why many people experience strong emotions after the procedure is complete. Take a minute to go through this questionnaire to find out whether you are struggling with a past abortion.

Questions to Ask Yourself

Do you struggle to stop thinking about your abortion?
When abortion comes up in conversation, do you quickly change the subject?
Are you having a hard time forgiving yourself?
Do you have a problem being around young children or babies?
Do certain times of the year (the anniversary of your procedure, for example) upset you?
Are you using alcohol or other drugs to cope?
Have you developed an eating disorder, depression or anxiety?
Are you feeling extreme sadness, guilt, or hopelessness since the procedure?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you will likely benefit from abortion recovery counseling. Alpha Women’s Center is here to help you. Contact us today for more information on the program.

Alpha's free services have helped me to put trust in myself of being a single mother. The services have taught and encouraged me to be the best parent I can be towards my child. I have also made some mommy friends to help support me along the way while I support them as well.

Alpha’s free services has impacted my life by teaching me a lot about being a parent that I never knew about since I’m a first time mom. It also helped with providing me with clothes, formula, diapers and wipes for my baby.

Without the staff and volunteers at Alpha, I wouldn't have faith to keep moving forward. They not only saved my spirit, but helped me choose a more wise path .

I saw a sign that said "Free Ultrasounds" and stopped in. I discovered the Women's center and all the awesome things it has to offer. Alpha Services have helped me so much through their classes. All the ladies are so nice and generous and have helped answer any questions I have.

The first that I walked through the doors at Alpha, I saw no light at the end of the tunnel. The Alpha staff offered me lots of information in an effort to assist me in making an educated decision and helped me avoid decisions I would later regret. They supported me, uplifted me and showed me the world is still full of possibilities. The openness in sharing personal experiences is reassuring to those that come through the door and offers a feeling of comfort and immediate connection.
