A woman making choices about an unplanned
pregnancy may be facing one of the most difficult and important
decisions in her life. In order for her to make the best decision
for her unique situation, she needs to be adequately informed
regarding all of her options and the short and long term implications
of each one.
While many health care or social service professionals
my not have time to help her process her emotions, her needs and
her choices, this is what we do every day.
Decisions are often based on misinformation or result from a a lack of resources. We take as long as is necessary to provide each client with the information and resources she needs in order to make a good decision regarding her unexpected pregnancy and to move ahead with her life.
An unplanned pregnancy does not occur in a vacuum. There are issues relating to family dynamics, self esteem, relationships, substance abuse, education and career, etc. which need to be addressed. Our individual and family counseling provides that opportunity.
We have counseled thousands of teens and
women and their families since 1991. Our greatest concern has
always been the physical and emotional health, and safety of our
clients.
All our services are free of charge and strictly
confidential.
