Mental Health Training and Advocacy

I am deeply passionate about raising mental health awareness and breaking the stigma that still surrounds it.

“What mental health needs is more sunlight, more candor and more unashamed conversation.”

-Glenn Close

Bringing Real Conversations into Everyday Spaces

I am deeply passionate about raising mental health awareness and breaking the stigma that still surrounds it. I believe these conversations don’t just belong in counseling offices—they belong in classrooms, workplaces, churches, and community spaces. That’s why I offer engaging, practical training tailored for educators, parents, employees, and faith leaders.

Whether I’m speaking in a classroom, boardroom, or sanctuary, my goal is to spark meaningful conversations that are relatable, honest, and impactful. My training is designed to educate in a down-to-earth way, reduce stigma, and equip people with practical tools to support both themselves and others. It’s a privilege to help groups feel more confident and compassionate when talking about mental health and to make emotional well-being a visible, valued part of their culture.

Interactive Workshops

Hands-On Learning for Real-Life Impact

If you’re looking for something deeper than a presentation or lecture, I also offer interactive mental health workshops. These sessions go beyond information and invite participants to engage through real-life activities, guided reflection, and tools they can use immediately in their personal and professional lives.

Whether the focus is managing stress, building resilience, improving communication, or learning how to support someone in distress, each workshop is designed to help participants:

-Strengthen their own mental well-being

-Build emotional awareness and communication skills

-Become a positive influence in their families, schools, workplaces, or faith communities

Sample Training and Workshop Topics Include:

  • Understanding Mental Health
    Debunking myths and promoting empathy to create more informed, compassionate communities.

  • Supporting Youth Mental Health
    Helping parents, teachers, and school staff recognize when a young person is struggling—and how to respond.
