Speaking Engagements

Please reach out if I can support your organization by providing a training or workshop! I would love to hear from you.

I regularly speak at conferences and provide trainings and workshops in the community. As a certified EMDR and Perinatal Mental Health Clinician with over 25 years of experience in this field, I find it important to present empirically validated information combined with my own clinical experience and passion for the material. I've been told I am an engaging speaker who keeps the information relevant and relatable. I love sharing case examples and real life experiences to bring the content to life. It's fun to connect with my audience and see the information land in ways that spark inspiration and conversation.  I find it a great joy to collaborate with others, and it's an honor when I'm requested to be a guest expert for workshops and on podcasts and other media programs.

Workshops and trainings for professionals or the community are available on the following topics (or we can discuss customizing a talk for your needs):

  • Perinatal Mental Health Disorders (PMHDs)
  • Using EMDR therapy with perinatal populations
  • Treating Perinatal OCD
  • Birth trauma healing and recovery
  • Reproductive trauma treatment and prevention
  • Pregnancy loss recovery and support
  • Promoting trauma-informed practices in healthcare settings
  • Infertility support
  • Attachment work in perinatal spaces 
    • Supporting new parents in building strong attachments to their babies
    • Repairing and healing attachment wounds from childhood
  • Self-care and emotional regulation skills
  • Supporting healthcare and mental healthcare professionals in addressing secondary traumatization, trauma exposure, and managing burnout and compassion fatigue
Rates vary based on the length of presentation, preparation time, and location/travel required. 

I'd love to talk with you about speaking at your event.  Please reach out here.

Bethany is an engaging speaker and a true expert in the perinatal mental health field. She speaks with compassion and a true sense of purpose. Bethany captures the attention of her audience through a dynamic speaking style and leaves her audience feeling inspired. She also has the remarkable ability to deliver powerful evidenced-based clinical information while connecting with her audience on a deep level. Every time I hear Bethany speak, I find myself eagerly awaiting her next training.

Beth was excellent and engaging, I would love to take another training from her again. Highly recommend!

Beth is fantastic, I would love more training opportunities with her.

This training had to be pretty fast-paced for all the great content and it was a good balance of info, specific case examples and applying the ideas. This was one of the best online trainings I have been to, thank you!

Bethany was extremely knowledgeable! I appreciate her sharing case examples, which helped me think about how to apply the information.
