Why Hire Me as a Public Speaker for Your Event

I Speak From Both Lived and Clinical Experience

When you invite a speaker to your stage, you’re looking for more than information—you want someone who can connect, inspire, and leave your audience thinking differently. Whether I’m speaking to healthcare professionals, mental health clinicians, or communities impacted by chronic illness and trauma, I bring a voice that is grounded, relatable, and deeply human.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and someone who lives with chronic health conditions, I bring a dual lens of expertise and empathy. I don't just talk about resilience, identity, and healing—I live it. This gives my talks an authenticity and emotional depth that audiences connect with instantly.

Topics That Bridge Psychology, Medicine, and Humanity

Popular speaking topics include:

  • "Invisible Doesn't Mean Imaginary:" Mental Health & Chronic Illness

  • "From Self-Abandonment to Self-Trust:" Healing Codependency in Helping Professions

  • "Clinical Considerations in Transplant & LVAD Psychosocial Care"

  • "Boundaries, Burnout, and Becoming Your Own Advocate"

Custom topics can also be tailored for your audience.


Education With Practical Impact

I balance professional insight with tangible takeaways, including visuals, handouts, and metaphors that stick. Attendees walk away with real tools—whether they’re therapists, caregivers, or survivors themselves.
