Can I talk with someone one-on-one?

How much does it cost?

Is this program faith-based?
Yes, our curriculum and approach are grounded in Christianity. Though our clinic does not offer licensed counseling, we can provide referrals if needed. We understand that every woman’s healing journey – and relationship with God – is different. We are here to walk alongside you no matter where you are on that journey. This is a non-judgmental, loving, and safe place to begin working through buried feelings and emotional pain with other women who have made the same choice. We simply supply additional hope that rests in the Christian belief that humans are made in the image of their loving Creator, whom they have rebelled against, and that reconciliation and redemption are only possible through the perfect life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
What curriculum do you use?
Our recovery specialists choose between two curriculum: Forgiven and Set Free by Linda Cochrane and A Season to Heal: Help and Hope for Those Working Through Post-Abortion Stress by Luci Freed.
