Professional support
On this page are a number of psychologists and counsellors who specialise in the perinatal area. Some of them specialise specifically in the area of termination of pregnancy due to fetal abnormality, or mother’s medical condition. If you are in the process of deciding whether to continue your pregnancy, then you may also be eligible for three sessions of perinatal non-directive counselling through Medicare.
