Pregnant and uncertain – We can help you make your choice

When discovering you are pregnant, it is common to have mixed emotions. You may feel joy, uncertainty, doubt, hope and worry all at once, or one at a time, at various times.

The pregnancy may have been unplanned, you may have received unexpected test results, your life situation may have changed, or you may be having doubts.


Your choice
If you are pregnant and feeling uncertain or in doubt, it is important that you make a choice that is right for you, with your heart and mind. Regardless of what the people around you think, you are the person who is pregnant, and you have the right to make your own decision.

It isn’t always easy to know what you need. Perhaps what you need is to manage your situation here and now. Or do you need help to sort out your thoughts and feelings before making your decision? Many people who contact us also need answers to specific questions or information on the different options. At Amathea, we know that our feelings affect the way we think, and that it can be difficult to sort things out on your own. In such a situation, it is important that you get the help you need and someone to talk to, so you can make an informed choice that is right for you.

Our focus, in a session with us, is on giving you the time and opportunity to talk about whatever is important to you. This is meant to be a safe place, where you can speak openly without worries of what might be right or wrong.

Do you need someone to talk to?
At Amathea, you will meet healthcare professionals with extensive experience in counselling after an abortion. We are a healthcare service, have a duty of confidentiality, and can help you in your situation and in making your decision. You may come alone or together with your partner or co-parent.

All of our services are free of charge. We offer sessions in Norwegian and English. We can also book interpreters for other languages. A session here lasts about an hour, and you can talk with us on video, by phone, or at one of our offices. You decide how many sessions you need, and we will schedule these together.
