Unplanned Pregnancy Options: Expert Counseling and Support for Every Woman
An unplanned pregnancy is exactly what it sounds like: an unintended pregnancy. This surprise can happen to anyone at any season of life. And for some women, it is overwhelming and scary. It’s natural to feel uncertain about what to do, or where to begin with what your options even are. Thankfully, you do not have to depend on current relationships or approach this overwhelming time alone. At Mosaic Virginia, we are here to support you every step of the way.
Finding out you are pregnant can be a life-changing experience. While it can be exciting for some women, it can be overwhelming and scary for others, especially if the pregnancy is unplanned. If you’re facing an unplanned pregnancy, it’s essential to seek counseling and support in making decisions. Counseling as a form of social support can help you cope with the emotional and physical changes that come with pregnancy.

Here at Mosaic Virginia, our support doesn’t stop after you’ve made your decision. We offer post-abortion support for women who have chosen to terminate their pregnancy. We offer parenting classes for women who choose to parent their baby. And we offer ongoing counseling for women who bravely decide to place their baby in adoption services.

Our counseling sessions are designed to help you explore all of your options, including parenting, adoption, and abortion. We provide a safe and judgment-free environment where you can discuss your feelings, concerns, and questions about each option. Our goal is to inform and support you as you make the best decision for you and your family. We will provide you with unbiased information and support you throughout the process.
Understanding Your Options: Adoption
Adoption is an option that we can discuss in its fullness during your counseling session. Our team at Mosaic can provide you with information and resources about the adoption process and organizations, including how to choose an adoption agency and how to create an adoption plan. In most cases, financial assistance is available for the birth mother, along with many other benefits. We also offer support and resources for pregnancy and the birth journey if this is the route you decide to take. We understand that adoption is a deeply personal decision, and we are here to support you before, during, and after.
Our experienced counselors will guide you through each step, from choosing the right adoption agency to finding the perfect family for your child. We understand that adoption is a difficult decision, but we believe that it can be a loving and selfless choice for both you and your child.
Understanding Your Options: Adoption
Abortion is often the first option women think of especially when it’s an unwanted pregnancy. Because of this, our team stays informed on legal updates for both national and state laws and our counselors will provide unbiased explanations of each abortion process and answer any questions you have including effects on future fertility and psychological distress. Some common questions our counselors help with include, “How effective is the abortion pill?” “What are the side-effects of abortion?” and “What are the different abortion procedures?” Our counselors provide explanations of the abortion process and can answer any questions you have, including those pertaining to effects on future fertility and psychological distress. We understand that abortion is a sensitive and personal decision, and our goal is to provide you with the support and care you deserve throughout your decision-making process. Because abortion can have such a deep, physiological effect on women, we also offer post-abortion support.

Parenting can oftentimes feel daunting for women who were not planning on getting pregnant. However, with the right resources and support, this option is never out of the question for any expectant mother that comes to Mosaic. If you decide that parenting is the right choice for you, our counseling services can provide you with the resources and support you need for yourself and your child.
