Workshops

Practical, evidence-based workshops for parents, educators, and schools delivered at your site, tailored to your group. I bring my clinical expertise directly to your community. Whether you are a school counselor looking to support your staff, a parent group navigating the challenges of raising children, or a program director planning the new school year, these workshops meet you where you are.

For Parents

Parenting a child with anxiety, ADHD, or behavioral challenges is hard work and most parents are doing it without a roadmap. Parent workshops provide clear, research-backed strategies you can use immediately at home. Popular topics include:

  • Understanding and Managing Childhood Anxiety
  • Talking to Your Teen: What Works (and What Doesn’t)
  • Raising a Child with ADHD: Structure and Support
  • When to Seek Help: Red Flags Parents Shouldn’t Ignore
  • Taming Tantrums and Big Emotions
  • Monitoring Developmental Milestones
  • Children’s Digital Well-being
  • Parental Self-Care

For Schools & Educators

Teachers and school counselors are often the first to notice when a student is struggling but they are rarely given the training to respond with confidence. I work with schools, after-school programs, and summer camps to build that capacity. Popular topics include:

  • Supporting Students with Anxiety in the Classroom
  • Understanding and Accommodating ADHD
  • Red Flags: When Your Student Might Need Help
  • Staying Engaged and Preventing Educator Burnout
  • Helping Students Through Life Transitions

For Children & Tweens (Ages 5–13)

Children learn best when concepts feel relevant, age-appropriate, and even a little fun. Children and tween workshops for younger participants are designed to meet kids where they are, building real skills in a way that feels natural, not clinical. Popular topics include:

  • Making and Keeping Friends: Social Skills That Stick
  • Big Feelings, Small Steps: Managing Anxiety and Emotions
  • Growing from Mistakes: Building Resilience and Self-Compassion
  • Strengthening Self-Confidence
  • Healthy Connections with Family and Friends
  • The Mind-Body Connection
