Speaking & Consulting

People with serious mental illness deserve more than awareness—they deserve understanding, dignity, & a seat at the table.

As a speaker and consultant with schizoaffective disorder, I work to shift the culture around these conditions, equip audiences to offer meaningful support, and empower my peers to thrive. Whether I’m educating healthcare providers, training first responders, or guiding inclusive workplaces, my goal is always the same: to make society more responsive, inclusive, and humane for people with schizophrenia and related disorders.

Who I’ve Worked With

Testimonials

“You brought such depth, heart and dignity to this subject. I can’t imagine a better way to teach this as it so effectively reduces the very subject it is illuminating.”

Instructor

“It was incredibly valuable for me, personally, and it’s spurred me to reflect and learn more. I’ve already started conversations with the folks around me.”

Working Professional

“All of the information was very practical and well presented. Having Sally there to give her perspective of how it is to be the one receiving crisis-intervention/de-escalation was also hugely beneficial.”
