Denial is a stage in the grieving process. Denial may be a coping mechanism to keep feelings at bay. There is no specific time frame for this stage. Whether your abortion is recent or years ago, we can help you move through this painful stage.
A HUGE THANK YOU to Calvary Baptist for this incredibly generous and wonderful donation! This meets such a big need and will allow us to bless many clients in need. Thank you!!!
What is grief? Grieving is a normal and healthy response to loss. Grief is like living two lives. One where you pretend everything is alright, and the other where your heart silently screams in pain. We are here to help you process your grief following a pregnancy loss.

One of the stages of grief is denial. It is the suppression of thoughts and emotions pertaining to a loss. If not dealt with it can effect patterns in behavior and quality of life. One of our clients moving through the stages of grief said this to one of our Counsellors. "I am learning to feel again." The path to wholeness is not an easy one, but a possible one.
We are often our own worst critic, holding ourselves up to impossible standards. And when we do not meet the expectations that both ourselves and society place on us, it can be all to easy to fall into negative self-talk. Self-compassion and self-affirmations can be powerful tools to help shift from negative self-talk to positive self-talk.
Sometimes the hardest step is the first one. If you are struggling after an abortion, we are here to support you and walk along side you; each step of the way.
