Workshops and Speaking

Let’s Be Honest

We all know communication is key, but no one hands you the manual.

That’s why so many couples, teams, and organizations get stuck in the same arguments on repeat.

The good news?  These skills can be learned.
That’s where I come in.

Let Me Tell You A Little About Myself

I’m a licensed mental health counselor and group practice owner where I help people who are in need of practical relationship advice that actually works in real life.

With years of experience guiding couples, individuals, and organizations, I teach people how to:

  • Navigate conflict without blowing up or shutting down

  • Set boundaries that protect relationships instead of break them

  • Replace anxiety-driven patterns with secure, connected ones

I’ve been featured by outlets including CNY Spectrum News, The New York Post, Syracuse University, and the Telewellness Hub podcast.

My workshops have reached audiences from college campuses (like Morrisville State College), to community retreats (including a Couples Retreat with Clear Path for Veterans), to organizations looking to strengthen their teams.

Audiences consistently say I’m relatable, approachable, and actionable no jargon, just clear tools people can use the moment they leave.

Signature Topics

I tailor each workshop to your audience’s needs, with engaging, interactive sessions such as:

Healthy Communication Skills: practical tools to listen, speak, and actually be heard

Conflict Resolution Made Simple: how to repair after disagreements (instead of letting them fester)

Boundaries Without Guilt: protect your peace, strengthen your relationships

Team Building Through Communication: strategies for agencies and organizations to reduce burnout, build trust, and create healthier workplace relationships #

Formats I Offer

✔️ In-person or virtual workshops for couples, communities, and organizations

✔️ Retreat sessions (from couples retreats to caregiver and veteran retreats)

✔️ Online webinars & lunch-and-learns for teams and agencies

✔️ Campus talks for students navigating relationships, boundaries, and stress

I'm Your Girl If You...

If you’re looking for a speaker who is:

✅ Relatable and down-to-earth (your attendees won’t tune out halfway through)

✅ Evidence-based but practical (think research meets real life)

✅ Focused on connection over perfection

…then you’re in the right place.
