For Men

Intervention

Men are often the forgotten partners during a crisis pregnancy. However, at Care Net Pregnancy Center, men are welcome to take part in free counseling sessions and to receive information concerning their options. All services provided to men and women are completely confidential and all clients are treated with compassion and respect. (Care Net recognizes that each situation and each individual are unique. Our staff and volunteers are committed to meeting your needs.)

Post Abortion Support

Research suggests that men may experience a profound sense of loss following abortion. The most common problems experienced by post-abortive men include the following: anger, helplessness, guilt, relationship problems, and grief. Given the magnitude of their loss, it is normal for men to struggle with these problems and emotions.

Also, it is not uncommon for men to repress their own negative emotions as they try to be a strong support for their partners. This may make it more difficult for men to recognize and deal with their painful emotions. However, if such feelings are not resolved, they may lead to more serious consequences such as clinical depression or an inability to maintain healthy relationships.

Care Net Pregnancy Center offers post abortion counseling for men as well as for women. As with all of our services, this counseling is free and confidential. If you are a man who has been hurt by abortion, there is hope and there is healing. Please call us 24/7 at 608-259-1605 or 1-800-395-HELP for further information.
