Hi! Michael Sousa here!
A quick disclosure: I am Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in the State of Colorado. Please don't TL;DR this:
The information, tools, and strategies presented in any content I create, repost or endorse is for educational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice, psychotherapy, or mental health treatment. Participation of any form with any content I create, repost or endorse, free or paid, or related materials and resources does not establish a client-therapist relationship between you and me.
Nothing created, reposted or endorsed by me is intended to replace or substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician, licensed mental health provider, or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical or mental health condition.
Before implementing any resource, strategies or suggestions presented in any content created, reposted or endorsed by me, is to be followed up in consultation with your healthcare providers to ensure they are appropriate and safe for your individual situation; every person’s circumstances are unique!
If you are in crisis, thinking about harming yourself or others, or need immediate assistance: call your local emergency services (e.g. 911) or mental health crisis line (e.g. 988) right away.
