Summary

Throughout my career my passion has always been focusing on psycho-education, providing practical tools and strategies for learning "hands on" skills for emotional health and wellness. My books as well as my trainings and presentations are highly experiential, offering group and individual activities and exercises for improving mental health and increasing self-empowerment. I would be interested in a remote, part time position for up to 8-10 hours per week to use my skills and expertise in any way that help promote mental health and wellness through speaking, training, developing curriculum and consulting.
