After Abortion Support and Recovery Services
Helping women, men, and families recover after an abortion decision. We understand the complex emotions surrounding an abortion decision. Whether you recently had an abortion or it’s been years and you’ve not yet told a soul, this is our message to you: We see you and we are here for you.
The Path to Emotional Healing
Individual peer counseling or a support group can be of great help in healing any pain or regret that may exist. If you are having conflicting feelings about your abortion, the road to freedom and healing starts by simply sharing your story with someone who cares. That’s why we’re here.
Do you feel like you are alone with the emotional pain you are feeling? Do you lack the freedom to share your abortion experience with others? Do you expect bad things to happen to you – or believe you do not deserve good things to happen to you – as punishment for your abortion? No matter what your story is, you will always be met with compassion and a listening ear. We exist to blaze the path for women and men to give a name to their grief and move forward in healing.
Recovery Programs and Groups
Unhindered is a faith-based grief, loss, and trauma recovery program. We aim to provide a safe, non-judgmental space for both women and men to feel, express, and work through whatever feelings they may have in regard to an abortion in their past. We welcome participants regardless of age, race, income, nationality, religious affiliation, disability, or time passed since the abortion.
Our free Abortion Recovery Support Group meets once a month at the Blue Ridge Pregnancy Life Center. This is an inclusive, non-judgemental environment with biblical undertones for women to gather for their first or next step toward a life unhindered by the chains of their past abortion.

Our Commitment to Care
All our services are free and confidential. We believe women and men have a right to get evidence-based information from a resource that will not profit from the choices and pregnancy decisions they make. We are committed to protecting your health information. While we do not provide or refer for abortion services, we can answer your questions about side effects, what to expect, and more. We provide education on abortion and pregnancy options to ensure you are empowered in your journey toward healing.
