Reflect is the only dedicated Pregnancy Choice and Pregnancy Loss support service in North Yorkshire.
Our vision is to see anyone in North Yorkshire, enabled to make an informed decision about a pregnancy choice, without fear, pressure or judgment, and to support those who have been affected by pregnancy loss through miscarriage, stillbirth or termination of pregnancy, or who have experienced neonatal loss.
Reflect opened in York in 2007, Harrogate in 2014, Selby in 2018 and most recently in Thirsk in 2020. Local agencies and healthcare professionals’ signpost to Reflect and clients can access our services directly.
Reflect volunteers have completed the accredited Pregnancy Choices Practitioners Course (Open College Network certificate) or have equivalent experience and in-house Pregnancy Choice training. Volunteers are further trained in our specific Pregnancy Loss and post-termination support ‘Reflections: Walking through loss’ and all receive regular, ongoing, supervision and training.
Our Supervisors are all experienced qualified counsellors and our lead trainer has a Supervisors diploma. Our supervisors provide 1-1 phone supervision for our trained volunteers, and also host 6-8 weekly group supervision.
