Post Abortion Grief and Trauma Recovery with Dave Wernli

Trigger warning: In today’s podcast/video we discuss the sensitive topic of post abortive grief and trauma recovery.

In today’s podcast we discuss the sensitive, important topic of post abortive grief and trauma recovery. This is not a political discussion, nor an ethical discussion.

We are talking about the grief that having an abortion can produce, on both women and men, and how to recover.
