Speaking
Practical tools | Clear language | Collective resilience.
Audiences leave my talks with grounded insight, shared language, and concrete tools to navigate emotional overwhelm, reconnect with identity, and strengthen resilience.
Whether speaking in a synagogue, on a university campus, or in a DEI-focused setting, I bring a rare blend of clinical expertise, lived experience, and culturally responsive frameworks — offering engagements that are accessible, evidence-based, and designed to equip participants with actionable insight.
