Project Rachel in Southern Alberta

xiety, guilt, panic and helplessness are common. Not only for the woman who undergoes the abortion, but also the father of the unborn child, relatives, close friends and even medical personnel may suffer from some or all of these symptoms. We want you to know that you are not alone. It begins with a call to the Project Rachel confidential phone line. A staff member will help you to assess your need for psychological counseling. Counselors are available in Calgary, Lethbridge, Medicine Hat, and some rural communities. Alternately, you might choose to attend a weekend retreat—an opportunity to journey with others who are also seeking healing from a past abortion experience under the guidance of a professional counselor. Our counselors recognize abortion as a traumatic experience, and address its psychological, physical, and spiritual symptoms.
