Anxiety: What it is, Why it Happens, and What I Can Do
Understanding and coping with anxiety
This presentation covers the evolutionary etiology of anxiety, typical symptoms, functions of the symptoms, and adaptive coping strategies that target these symptoms. The information is presented in language that is easily understandable for most ages. It provides several examples to clearly communicate these topics and encourages the audience to practice the skills as they learn.
Target audience: middle school, high school, and college students
Boundaries & Brown Families
Culturally responsive boundaries
Boundaries are typically a foreign concept for most collectivist cultures and communities. While boundaries are important in all relationships, it is imperative to be mindful of culturally-responsive ways that balance the values of collectivism with protecting one’s individualism. This presentation discusses what boundaries are, why they are important, how they can enhance our relationships, and ways to respond to family members in such a way that does not unnecessarily harm the relationship.
Target audience: Individuals (or families) that come from a collectivistic culture (Black, Indigenous, People of Color; immigrant families).
Exploring Cultural Identity
Navigating identity & belonging as a child with immigrant parents
For many adult children of immigrant parents, growing up at the crossroads of cultures brings both deep connection and moments of uncertainty. It often means honoring the values and traditions of family while also carving out space for one’s own voice and choices. This balance shapes a journey of belonging that is layered and complex. Naming this “in-betweenness” can be deeply validating, reminding us that bicultural identity is not a conflict to resolve, but a rich experience to be honored. In voicing what so many quietly carry, we create room for compassion, integration, and a fuller sense of home within ourselves..
Target audience: those who have grown up with immigrant parents, ages 13+
Parenting & Anxiety
Supportive parenting with an anxious child
Anxiety can be tough. Not just for kids, but for parents too. It’s hard to know when to step in, when to give space, and how to help without accidentally making things worse. In this talk, we’ll take a closer look at where anxiety comes from, why some kids are more sensitive to it, and how it actually makes sense from a biological and evolutionary perspective. We’ll also talk through ways you can respond that are supportive and validating, without being overly accommodating or permissive. The goal is to help you feel more confident in the way you’re showing up for your anxious child and to give you both the tools needed to move through anxiety.
Target audience: parents of children/teens with anxiety (general anxiety, separation anxiety, specific phobias).
Parenting & ADHD
Parenting skills to address ADHD
Parenting a child with ADHD can be exhausting, confusing, and sometimes really frustrating. This talk is all about helping you understand what’s going on in your child’s brain, why certain behaviors show up the way they do, and why your child isn’t just being lazy, defiant, or careless. We’ll cover what ADHD actually looks like in everyday life, and how you can respond in ways that are supportive without feeling like you’re constantly walking on eggshells. You’ll also hear ways to manage your own stress and avoid some of the common traps (like accidentally shaming or dismissing your child’s experience). This isn’t about being perfect, it’s about feeling less stuck and more connected.
Target audience: parents of children/teens with ADHD
Parenting & Trauma
Parenting a child who has experienced trauma
When your child has gone through something traumatic, it can leave you feeling helpless. You want to protect them and help them heal, but it’s hard to know what to say or do. This talk explores how trauma impacts your child’s brain and nervous system, what those effects can look like day-to-day, and how you can support your child in a way that feels safe, connected, and empowering. You’ll walk away with a better understanding of trauma-informed parenting, and how small, everyday choices can make a big difference in helping your child feel safe again.
Target audience: parents of children who have experienced a trauma
