Specializes in Clinical Psychology

I would strongly : recommend speaking with a psychologist 2 help U decide what 2 do. I am so sorry that U were raped. With or without a pregnancy, being violated is traumatic. All survivors can benefit from psychotherapy. EMDR is one type of therapy that can help U process the trauma. In addition, therapy can help U w' the difficult decision whether 2 abort the pregnancy or bring the child in2 the world.
