Speaking About Mental Health & Wellbeing
Are you involved in raising mental health awareness in your community?
I would be delighted to come and speak at your event on Mental Health and Wellbeing. My presentations always integrate practical elements, ensuring participants gain hands-on experience with new strategies for psychological, emotional, and physical wellness. Grounded in the latest research, my talks draw from neuroscience and polyvagal theory.
I share my personal journey with mental and emotional health, emphasising the significance of developing a personalised wellness toolkit. Additionally, my discussions underscore the importance of self-care, recognising when to seek help, and exploring various accessible support options.
See below for some examples of workshops and talks I have delivered in the past. Please reach out if you would like more information.
Do you manage a team of staff that need wellbeing education, or perhaps a day to just unwind, while learning self-care and downregulating strategies? Would you like your team to better understand their needs and those of their colleagues?
Education and awareness are pivotal to any Wellbeing journey. If your team doesn't grasp how to cultivate their own Wellbeing, they won't be motivated to pursue it. I offer your team the chance to become informed about mental health research and learn how to manage and support themselves more effectively. This also helps to reduce the stigma around speaking up during difficult times.
Educational Workshops can be customised to meet the specific needs of your team or address your chosen topics.
Here are a few examples:
Burnout and Compassion Fatigue: Understanding and prevention
Coping with Stress, Anxiety, and Overwhelm: Practical strategies
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): Awareness and accessing help
Overcoming the Hesitation to Ask for Help: Changing the narrative
Dispelling Myths and Stigma around Mental Health: Fostering openness
Fight or Flight/Rest and Digest: Understanding survival cycles and how to shift between states
Mindfulness and Meditation: Practical applications
Incorporating this into your organisation’s Wellbeing events - whether during training sessions or dedicated Wellbeing Days - would be immensely beneficial. If you would like to explore and discuss how I can contribute to your team’s ongoing wellbeing, please reach out.
Here are some past events where I have contributed through talks and workshops. These examples will give you a sense of how I can add value to your event. Remember, everything can be customised to meet your specific requirements.
