Please remember that likes, comments, subscribing, and messages on YouTube or any other social media platform are public and not a private or secure way to share personal information. If you would like to contact me regarding my therapy services, please do so directly via phone or email. I occasionally reference my poetry collection in my public YouTube videos as part of my creative work, but it is not my intention to sell my creative work to previous or current therapy clients.
