Abortion is not a dirty word.
I strongly believe in our right to choose and I am fiercely committed to protecting that right as well as breaking the stigma surrounding abortion. You do not need to justify your choice to deserve care. You deserve to be met with respect, dignity, and support. Abortion is common and it can bring up a wide range of emotions. Some people feel relief. Some feel grief. Some feel both at once. Some feel very little. All of it is valid and normal.
As an abortion doula, I offer non-judgmental, pro-choice support before, during, and after an abortion. My role is not medical. It is practical, emotional, and informational support, centered on your autonomy and your right to make decisions about your body and your life. I will help you prepare and feel informed about what to expect and plan for care and comfort during and after your abortion.
We’ll build a plan that fits your needs, respects your autonomy and privacy, your values, and your situation.
Before
Information, preparation, option navigation, comfort planning, anxiety-reduction tools, and creating an aftercare plan.
Day-of
Text or phone support, grounding and reassurance, practical planning, and a steady presence. (In-person support can be discussed depending on location and safety. Please note, Women's Health Options in Edmonton does not allow your support person to be in the building with you. )
After
Check-ins, emotional support, rest and recovery planning, and resources for ongoing care if you want it.
I don’t provide medical advice, diagnose, or replace clinical care. I can help you prepare questions for your provider and support you in making decisions that feel right for you.
