MISCARRIAGE
We would like to begin by expressing our sorrow to you at this time and hope
that this website can offer you some information about Scottish Care and
Information on Miscarriage, which may be of value to you over the coming
months. The experience of miscarriage is unique to each person and for some it
may be a time of sadness and overwhelming feelings of loss and grief. SCIM is a
charity managed by people in
who have themselves, suffered miscarriage. Our experiences encompass early and
late loss, infertility and in some cases childlessness. May we at this
difficult time offer you our support and understanding. Please remember that
you are not alone and that we would be happy to hear from you and offer our
help in any way possible.
With every good wish & regards,
The members of Scottish Care and Information on Miscarriage
MISCARRIAGE FEELINGS: Many families experience
a variety of emotions following loss including:

At Scottish Care and Information on Miscarriage we offer a range of
counselling support services including advice on miscarriage, future
pregnancies and fertility awareness. Our experience in working with families,
who have suffered through miscarriage, shows that the following may be
beneficial. You are free to choose which services would be of most help to you.
MISCARRIAGE COUNSELLING- There are many different types of
counselling. At SCIM our counsellors work in a Person-Centred way. This
approach has been used for over 50 years and was founded by Carl Rogers. The
Person-Centred Approach is based on the idea that every person has within
themselves the resources for self understanding, at SCIM our counsellors can
help you to develop these resources at our
supportive relationship where difficulties can be sensitively explored. Our
counselling service is used by individual male or female clients and couples.
