Peace after abortion

by Ava Torre-Bueno

This is the first psychological self-help book for the 10% of women who have significant emotional distress after an abortion. Terry Beresford, former Director of Counseling at Planned Parenthood of Maryland says, "Peace After Abortion is a well written, practical and compassionate book, designed to help that small but important group of women who are troubled after an abortion to deal with their feelings. It will also be an invaluable aid to health care professionals who may be working with tose women, and to anyone interested in a self-help approach to issues of guilt, depression, and shame. So far as I know, it is the only book available of its kind, and it is hard to imagine how a beeter one could be found."
