Speaking & Workshops
I speak to groups who want honest, trauma informed conversations about healing, resilience, faith, and the stories we carry.
My talks are grounded, relational, and accessible designed to meet people where they are without overwhelming or oversimplifying the realities of trauma and growth.
I’m a licensed mental health counselor, EMDR consultant, and author of Trauma Stories: Discovering Strength Through Our Vulnerabilities.
