Our Work

Counselling and Support

Our counselling team offers to clients across Queensland.

• decision making counselling.

• post-abortion counselling.

• evidence-based information on pregnancy options.

• Information on how to access care within the community or local hospital and health service.

Our service is open between 9am-5pm Monday- Friday excluding all public holidays. Our friendly intake team are available between 10am-3pm to provide information and general client support.

Please be aware that our counselling service is primarily appointment based. If calling for counselling support, our intake team will ask you some questions and book a session at a time that works for you. Where possible we will try to accommodate immediate support based on a counsellor availability.

As a confidential, genuine all-options service, we do not ‘advise’ clients on which option they should pursue or try to push one option over another. Nobody else can know better than a pregnant person what the best decision for them is.
