Talks & Workshops
Talks & Workshops
Over thirty years, I've had the privilege of bringing psychological insight into rooms beyond my office — training professional responders, supporting parents, and working with teens finding their way into adulthood. Drawing on both my clinical practice and ten years teaching graduate-level family systems theory at Nova Southeastern University, I offer talks and workshops tailored to the audience in front of me, from an intimate roundtable to a full workshop. Available in English and Spanish.
Trauma-Informed Care for Professional Responders
A workshop developed for those whose work regularly exposes them to trauma — covering personal security, the realities of vicarious trauma, and practical tools for resilience and sustained well-being in high-stress roles.
Multicultural & Intentional Parenting
Drawing on my doctoral research and years of clinical work, this workshop helps parents build a values-based approach to raising children — particularly relevant for families navigating more than one culture or language at home.
Supporting Teens Into Adulthood
Work with teenagers and their families on the particular challenges of adolescence, self-esteem, and the transition toward independence.
Family Systems in Practice
Drawing on ten years teaching graduate-level family systems theory, this material helps professionals and organizations understand conflict, communication, and change through a systemic lens.
Women's Emotional Health & Menopause
A workshop addressing the emotional and psychological dimensions of perimenopause and menopause — mood shifts, anxiety, sleep disruption, and the broader identity questions this transition can bring up. Designed to normalize what's happening, address its relational impact, and offer practical tools for navigating this stage with clarity and support.
If any of these topics would be useful for your organization, team, or community group, I'd welcome the conversation.
