I very much enjoy public speaking and over the years I have been invited to speak and lead workshops at a wide variety of local, national and international events.

Topics covered in the past have included mental health, substance use, wellness courts, mental health policy development, mental health law, consent and capacity issues, public education, first voice involvement, peer support, advocacy, and others.

If you are interested in having me speak or faciliatate a workshop please get in touch and we can discuss what will best suit your needs.
