Non-Judgemental: We’re here when you need it most
Making the decision to have an abortion is difficult and for many, it is life-changing. Many women require post-abortion support to heal physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
There are no right or wrong emotions to feel after having an abortion; every person has a different experience. While some women may experience side effects immediately after their procedure, for others, their struggle occurs weeks, months, or even years later.
At PPSS, our highly qualified staff is here to meet with you one-on-one to listen to your experience and struggles. Our pregnancy centre is a safe, non-judgemental, and compassionate place for you to voice your story, seek support, and receive help in this time of need.
