Project Rachel - Hope after abortion.

The staff at Catholic Charities Life Transitions Services understands that feelings of grief, anxiety, guilt and anger are common not only for the woman who underwent the abortion, but also for the man involved, family, friends and even medical personnel.

The pain of loss is often buried initially, but may be manifested by relationship difficulties, depression, or other emotional and spiritual problems.

We understand that the pain caused by involvement with abortion is often not recognized by our society.

Our staff reach out with compassion and mercy to those who are hurting emotionally and spiritually after involvement with abortion. We recognize that all of us have made choices that we later regret.

If you are suffering from:

1. Grief
2. Depression
3. Anxiety
4. Guilt
5. Anger
6. Psychological numbing
7. Isolation
8. Re-experiencing the abortion
9. A preoccupation with becoming pregnant again

you may benefit from our services

We offer:

1. A confidential telephone number for you to talk with someone about your experience.
2. Support from people specially trained to help you sort through unresolved feelings and conflicts.
3. If you are on a faith journey, we can refer you to Pastoral counseling sensitive to your particular needs.

All inquires are held in complete confidence
