Speaking & Workshops with Inspire Therapeutic Solutions
Empowering communities through open, practical conversations about mental health
Transforming Conversations Around Mental Health
At Inspire Therapeutic Solutions, we believe that open, compassionate conversations about mental health can transform individuals, families, and entire communities. Speaking engagements are an opportunity to create safe spaces, whether in schools, churches, organizations, or community groups, where people can learn, connect, and find hope.
About My Speaking Approach
As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), and Certified in Personality Disorders (C-PD), I bring both clinical expertise and compassionate storytelling to every presentation.
My talks are designed to:
-
Break stigma and foster honest dialogue about mental health
-
Build understanding of complex topics in relatable ways
-
Provide evidence-based tools that participants can use immediately
Every presentation is tailored to the audience, whether it’s students, parents, educators, church leaders, or professionals. The goal is always the same: to spark insight, reduce stigma, and strengthen emotional wellness.
