Reading Lifeline has counsellors who have been trained specifically to help women who have had an abortion to work through some of their feelings in a safe and supportive environment.

If you have had an abortion you may experience difficulties dealing with the emotional after-effects. This could lead to problems such as: depression, guilt, relationship breakdown, anger, isolation, or dreams of the unborn child, which may sometimes last for years after the abortion. In some cases feelings may lie buried for a number of years before any effects are felt.

Should you feel that you would benefit from post abortion counselling please contact the centre and one of our counsellors will talk to you about this service.

If you would like to speak to someone urgently then please ring Care Confidential FREE on 0800 028 2228, or
