My Most Surprising Speaking Engagements: Finding Common Ground in Unexpected Places

As a clinical neuropsychologist and public mental health speaker, I’ve had the privilege of addressing a wide array of groups on topics ranging from self-care to assessing financial capacity in older adults, and much in-between.  My areas of expertise include aging, assessment, disability, trauma, and neuropsychology, so I often present on topics around the intersection of mental health and physical aspects of health, for example, the aging brain, coping with Multiple Sclerosis, PTSD and aging, assessment of capacity or dementia in older adults, menopause and ADHD, or cognitive function in Spinal Cord Injury. While I always tailor my presentations to the specific audience, some engagements stand out as unexpected and rewarding. I love building presentations for an engaged audience, and I’ve had a lot of enjoyable speaking engagements. Here are a few of my most surprising experiences as a psychological public speaker.

Wellness and Self-Care in the Legal Profession

Three professionals in discussion, representing the role of a mental health speaker in Los Angeles, CA and the value of mental health presenters in Los Angeles for workplace wellness and resilience.

One of my most memorable speaking gigs as a mental health keynote speaker in Los Angeles, CA was for a group of lawyers, where I presented on wellness and self-care. Lawyers are often known for their demanding schedules and high-pressure environments, making "self-care" seem almost an oxymoron in their world.

I admit, I went into that engagement feeling a little intimidated. Would the group be receptive? Would they see the value in taking time for themselves amidst their intense workloads? Were my insights and suggestions realistic for folks juggling so much? To my surprise, the group was engaged and full of curiosity about how to incorporate self-care into a busy and demanding work life. We had really great group discussions about practical strategies for managing stress, setting boundaries, and cultivating mindfulness, even in the midst of intense caseloads and high-stakes work. What struck me most was their genuine engagement. They asked insightful questions, shared their own struggles, and were remarkably candid about the challenges of maintaining well-being in their profession. It was a powerful reminder that regardless of the demands of our careers, the need for balance and personal well-being is universal.

Understanding the Human Side of Workers' Comp

Another impactful speaking gig as a mental health speaker was for a group of workers' compensation claims adjusters and attorneys about psychological adjustment to disability. This was a great audience, and a group that I present to regularly. Their daily work involves navigating complex legal codes and regulations, long medical reports, and often, the difficult realities of individuals facing life-altering injuries and strict procedures for how treatment is managed. My goal for this presentation was to help the group understand the deeper psychological impact of disability, moving beyond the medical charts to the human experience. Adjustment to disability is a process that can reshape a person’s identity and sense of self, relationships, and views about life, and I think it’s important for folks working in the work comp world to understand the changes that come with a disability.

I focused on topics like grief, loss of identity, coping mechanisms, and the crucial role of support systems. What impressed me was the audience’s empathy, thoughtfulness, and desire to better serve those they work with. The group asked thoughtful questions about how to communicate more effectively, how to identify signs of distress, and how to encourage resilience. It was clear that these professionals were impacted by the human stories behind the work comp claims they manage, and interested in doing their best work.

Adapting Neuropsych Testing for Physical Realities

Finally, my talk to a neuropsychology assessment group on adapting neuropsychological testing for physical disabilities was another unexpected journey. Neuropsychologists are experts in brain-behavior relationships, often working with individuals who have neurological conditions or injuries. However, the practicalities of administering tests to someone with significant physical limitations can be a real challenge, and not one that many neuropsychologists have experience with or learn much about in school. During my early career, I built and directed the neuropsychological testing clinic in the Spinal Cord Injury/Disorders unit at the Long Beach VA Medical Center for several years, and I learned a lot in the process about adaptive and flexible testing for patients with physical disabilities.

I shared insights and strategies for modifying standard testing procedures, from adjusting the physical environment to adapting verbal instructions and response methods, to seeking out tests designed well for different abilities. The group, already deeply committed to their patients' well-being, was incredibly receptive to these practical solutions, and the discussion about inclusivity and our responsibilities to our patients was really meaningful. We had a lively discussion about creative problem-solving and ensuring accessibility in their practice. It was inspiring to see a group of highly specialized professionals so open to refining their methods to better serve their diverse patient population.

Preparing for a New Frontier: Menopause in the Municipal Workplace

As I reflect on these public speaking experiences in the realm of mental health and physical health, I’m also looking forward to an upcoming presentation series for city staff on navigating menopause. When the initial inquiry came through, I was intrigued. While menopause is a natural part of life, it's a topic often relegated to private conversations or medical appointments, not typically something openly discussed in a workplace setting. I was really pleased that a city government recognized a need among many employees, and created the budget and time to enhance workplace wellness!  My aim for this series is to demystify menopause for the group, provide practical coping strategies and tools for navigating the big changes that come with this aspect of aging, and foster a more understanding and supportive work environment for those experiencing this significant life stage. I anticipate a mix of curiosity and perhaps a touch of apprehension from the audience, but I’m genuinely excited to see the impact of bringing this often-overlooked aspect of women's health into the conversation, recognizing its potential influence on daily work life and well-being. It’s another opportunity to connect with an audience on a deeply human level, addressing a topic that, while common, is rarely given the attention it deserves in a professional context.

These experiences share a common thread: the inherent human capacity for growth, understanding, and connection.

Whether it's high-powered lawyers seeking inner peace, claims adjusters striving for greater empathy, neuropsychologists refining their craft for inclusivity, or city staff navigating a significant life transition, I've learned that many audiences hold a depth of curiosity and a willingness to engage with topics that matter. These speaking engagements serve as a powerful reminder that our shared humanity often transcends the boundaries of our professions, and that the most rewarding conversations can happen in the most unexpected places.

As a keynote speaker in Los Angeles, CA, I value the chance to create these conversations that spark growth, connection, and meaningful change.

Concepts in Capacity: Independent Living and How to Adjust to a Change in Your Living Situation

In this blog series, I am discussing concepts related to capacity to demystify capacity for folks who may be learning about financial or testamentary capacity, the need for a capacity assessment, or other aspects of capacity for the first time. I am a geropsychologist in Los Angeles, CA with a specialization in aging and assessment, and I am often hired to conduct evaluations of a person’s capacity for different things, such as managing finances, changing a will or trust, making medical decisions, or living independently. 

As we get older, life often brings changes, and one big one can be where we live. For a lot of older adults in the US, being able to live independently is very important. It may mean to them that they're in charge of their own lives. So, when someone has to move – maybe to a smaller house, a place with a bit of help (like assisted living), or even with family – it can be tough. 

What Does Capacity for "Independent Living" Mean?

The capacity for independent living is a complex concept because it isn't just one thing; it's a mix of different abilities:

  • Physical: Can a person get around at home by walking, using a walker, scooter, or wheelchair?  Can they get dressed, eat, and do things like cook or pay bills?

  • Mental: Can a person remember things related to safety or medications, solve problems, make decisions, and plan?

  • Emotional: How is the person’s mood?  How are they handling stress?

  • Social: Does the person have friends and family, or perhaps close neighbors that offer support? Do they know how to find help in their community?

An assessment for independent living capacity will usually involve some cognitive testing to see how a person’s memory, attention, and decision-making are functioning. In addition, there will be interviews of the individual and a loved one or caregiver who knows them well. Finally, there are a few standardized tests that look at safety, decision-making, and other independent living skills, and this is usually part of a capacity assessment as well.

When we move homes, even if we know it’s coming, we feel all sorts of things: sadness for what we are leaving behind, worry about what's next, anger about things we can't do anymore, or even relief from the stress of a big house. Older adults transitioning from living independently to another arrangement are likely to have mixed emotions. It's really important to understand and accept these feelings. For some, moving feels like losing control of life and leaving behind what's familiar. For others, it might be a smart choice for safety or an opportunity to be around more people.

How a Geropsychologist Helps People Adjust

Geropsychologists use several ways to help older adults adjust. First, we try to make sure they're involved in the decision-making process as much as possible. Even if a move has to happen, most adults want to choose details whenever possible to maintain a sense of having some control. Choosing things like what furniture they will take to their new home, or how their room is arranged can increase a sense of agency in a difficult situation. A geropsychologist can also help the older adult process and accept that a change in independent living is not necessarily about making their old life exactly the same in a new place, but about creating a life that feels worth living in the new circumstances.

Thinking about things in a new way is a big help. Instead of just focusing on what they've lost, a geropsychologist can help them see the new chances – like less housework, more social time, or new activities. We encourage them to keep their old friends and make new ones where they are now. This could mean joining clubs, going to events, or just chatting with new neighbors.

It's also important for all adults to feel capable and foster a sense of purpose, even under changed circumstances. Regardless of living situation, there are often choices and chances to do some things independently. I would encourage someone dealing with adjustment from living independently to assisted living to do what they can, whether it's managing their own medicine, picking their meals, or taking care of a small plant. Doing things that matter to them, like hobbies, volunteering, or creative activities, is key to feeling useful and happy.

If someone is really struggling with feeling down or anxious, talking to a therapist can be very helpful.

Special types of therapy can help them change negative thoughts, and talking about their life story can help them find meaning. In other cases, a geropsychologist may consult with a family about navigating this change – offering support and ideas based on practical experience. If it is necessary for an older adult to transition from living independently because they no longer have capacity to live safely alone, the adjustment and process can be challenging for the entire family and support system. Consultation to help navigate the changes and anticipate the things that might be difficult can be very helpful during this time.

A Journey, Not a Quick Fix

If you are making the change from independent living, remember that adjusting to a new living situation takes time and support. It's a journey. It requires patience, support, and a focus on adapting and thriving in the new place. Lean on your loved ones for support, and give yourself grace because change is hard!

Tips for Fiduciaries Managing Complex Family Dynamics

As a neuropsychologist in Los Angeles, I often see how complicated families can be. I recently presented at a conference for professional fiduciaries on navigating the ethics of complex family dynamics, and spoke to many fiduciaries afterward about their experiences. When family issues mix with the important job of a fiduciary (like a trustee, executor, or financial advisor), things get even harder.

Fiduciaries are legally bound to act in the best interest of their clients. This often means dealing with money and very personal decisions. But when clients are part of a family with old emotional wounds, the job needs more than just knowing laws and money. It requires understanding people and skills to handle difficult feelings. The main challenge for a fiduciary is that even though their duty is to the trust or the estate, they’re often dealing with many family members. And these family members might not agree.

Each person brings their own past, hopes, and complaints to the table. These feelings can quickly turn simple money decisions into emotional disagreements and irrational behavior. These tensions can be especially heightened when fiduciaries are managing estates where questions about testamentary capacity arise. Disagreements over whether a loved one had the capacity to make certain decisions can further complicate already strained relationships.

Why Family Feelings Are So Strong

First, it’s important to know that money, especially inherited money, is rarely just about numbers. It often means love, being valued, control, fairness, or even old hurts. Brothers and sisters might act out old childhood rivalries. Adult children might feel like one sibling was always the favorite. A new spouse might be looked at with suspicion by the original family. These aren’t logical thoughts; they’re deep emotional patterns.

That’s why it’s important to remember that testamentary wishes aren’t always interpreted the same way by every family member. What one person sees as honoring a loved one’s intent, another might see as unfair or misguided.

Second, families with problems often don’t talk directly. They hint at things, get emotional, or don’t talk at all. People make assumptions, feel insulted, and remember past events in their own way. Family members may have been estranged for years. As a fiduciary, you might be the first person in a long time to try and get them to have an honest, if hard, conversation.

Tips for Fiduciaries: Being Fair While Being Kind

So, how can a fiduciary handle these tough situations? Here are some simple tips based on

psychology:

1. Always Be Fair (and Show It):

Your legal duty comes first. From the start, make it clear that your job is for the trust, the estate, or the best interest of the person who benefits – not to please individual family members or their personal wishes. Write down everything: all your talks, decisions, and why you made them. Being open like this helps build trust, even if some family members don’t like the outcome.

2. Listen Carefully and Show You Understand, But Don’t Take Sides:

Family members want to be heard. Listen closely to their worries, their side of the story, and their upset feelings. Show that you understand how they feel (“I know this is a very hard time for you”, or “I hear your frustration about X”). This is not the same as agreeing with them or their demands. Validating feelings can calm things down and make people feel respected, even if your final decision isn’t what they wanted.

3. Set Clear Rules and Expectations:

Right from the first meeting, explain your job, what you can and can’t do, and how things will work. Clearly state how often you’ll talk, how you'll talk (phone, email), and what kind of information you’ll share. If you expect arguments, think about setting ground rules for meetings. Boundaries are your best friend in your professional role!

4. Take Care of Yourself:

Dealing with very emotional people can be tiring. It’s important for fiduciaries to know what makes them upset and to stay professional. Practicing good self-care outside of work sets you up for success in complex dynamics at work. Taking short breaks, using mindfulness, or seeking consultation with a trusted colleague (while keeping client details private) can help you stay calm and fair. Don’t take sides, share your personal opinions about the family, or get pulled into their arguments.

5. Suggest a Mediator If Needed:

For very sticky disagreements, suggest or even require professional mediation. A skilled mediator can help people talk constructively, find common ground, and explore solutions in a calm, neutral way. This often prevents expensive legal battles and can help keep family relationships intact.

6. Explain the Process, Not Just the Result:

Couple meeting with a professional advisor to discuss testamentary wishes and assess testamentary capacity in Los Angeles, CA.

Family members often react badly because they don’t understand the legal, financial, or practical reasons for your decisions. Patiently explain why you’re making certain choices, what the law requires, and what the long-term effects will be. When people understand why something is happening, they’re more likely to accept it, even if they don’t like it.

Handling tricky family situations as a fiduciary is tough, but it’s very important. By mixing your knowledge of law and money with a good understanding of people, you can not only do your job well but also help families get through hard times with more clarity, fewer fights, and maybe even a way to heal. One fiduciary I have worked with joked with me that her job was 25% fiduciary and 75% psychologist sometimes, and in some cases, I’m sure this feels true!

In some cases, families may benefit from a professional evaluation to clarify a loved one’s ability to make decisions at the time documents were signed. When questions arise, a qualified neuropsychologist in Los Angeles, CA can provide insight into testamentary capacity, helping fiduciaries navigate decisions with clarity and legal backing.

Hopefully these tips help.

When tensions rise over financial decisions or estate planning, it’s not just about money—it’s about trust, history, and honoring someone’s wishes. Before a loved one can legally appoint a fiduciary, it’s essential to understand whether they have the capacity to make that choice clearly and confidently.

The Unseen ROI of a Mental Health Presenter: How Prioritizing Mental Health Elevates Your Business

As a clinical psychologist, my work increasingly intersects the modern workplace. It might seem counterintuitive to link individual mental well-being with business strategy, or it may seem like an unnecessary expense to hire a psychologist to present to your members, but the evidence is overwhelmingly clear: a mentally healthy workforce isn’t just a moral imperative, it’s a profound competitive advantage.

In today’s fast-paced, demanding professional landscape, the mental well-being of your employees directly impacts your bottom line in ways you might not immediately recognize. We’re not just talking about reducing absenteeism due to stress leave or fewer workers’ comp claims, though those are certainly tangible benefits. We’re delving into a much deeper, more pervasive influence on productivity, innovation, retention, and ultimately, profitability.

Consider the human brain as the ultimate processing unit of your organization. When it’s functioning optimally – free from the debilitating weight of chronic stress, anxiety, or depression – it’s capable of remarkable feats. Employees with good mental health are more focused, engaged, and resilient. They approach challenges with a problem-solving mindset, contribute innovative ideas, and collaborate effectively. They are, in essence, operating at their peak performance.

Conversely, a workforce struggling with mental health challenges is a workforce operating at a significant deficit. Productivity plummets as focus wanes and decision-making becomes impaired. Creativity is stifled, and the ability to adapt to change diminishes. Employee morale erodes, leading to increased conflicts, higher turnover rates, and a pervasive sense of disengagement. The “presenteeism” phenomenon – where employees are physically at work but mentally absent – is a silent killer of efficiency, and it often stems directly from unaddressed mental health concerns.

So, how does a business actively foster a mentally healthy environment?

It starts with a strategic, multifaceted approach.

1. Destigmatize and Open the Dialogue:

The first and most crucial step is to create a culture where talking about mental health is normalized, not stigmatized. Leadership plays a pivotal role here. When leaders openly acknowledge the importance of mental well-being and share their own experiences (where appropriate), it sends a powerful message that self-care is valued and that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Training managers to recognize signs of distress and approach conversations with empathy is also vital.

2. Provide Accessible Resources:

Offering confidential and accessible mental health resources is non-negotiable. This could include Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs) that provide free counseling sessions, access to mindfulness apps, or partnerships with mental health presenters and professionals for workshops and educational sessions. I have presented on employee wellness, substance abuse, mindfulness, self-care, menopause, and other mental health topics for various organizations and employers, and consistently receive the feedback that staff greatly appreciate this investment in their wellbeing. The easier it is for employees to get help, the more likely they are to utilize it before issues escalate.

3. Champion Work-Life Balance:

The relentless pursuit of “more” often comes at the cost of employee well-being. Encourage and model healthy work-life boundaries. This includes promoting reasonable work hours, discouraging constant connectivity outside of work, and offering flexible work arrangements where feasible. When employees feel they have control over their schedules and time for personal pursuits, their stress levels decrease, and their engagement at work increases.

4. Foster a Culture of Psychological Safety:

A psychologically safe workplace is one where employees feel comfortable taking risks, admitting mistakes, and speaking up without fear of punishment or humiliation. This environment reduces anxiety and fosters a sense of belonging, which are fundamental to good mental health. When employees feel safe, they are more likely to innovate, collaborate, and contribute their best work.

5. Invest in Training and Development:

Equipping employees with stress management techniques, resilience-building skills, and emotional intelligence training can have a profound impact. These aren’t just “soft skills” they are essential tools for navigating the complexities of modern work and life. In my work as a mental health presenter, I have seen employees learn real, meaningful skills from workplace wellness training that impacts the broader company culture.

The return on investment for prioritizing mental health in the workplace is substantial, though not always immediately quantifiable in a spreadsheet. It manifests in reduced healthcare costs, lower turnover rates, increased productivity, enhanced creativity, and a more positive and collaborative work environment. Ultimately, it leads to a more resilient, adaptive, and successful organization – one that understands that its greatest asset walks in the door every day.

As a clinical psychologist, I urge business leaders to see mental health not as an HR checklist item, but as a core pillar of their strategic growth. Invest in the well-being of your people, and watch your business thrive. If you are interested in a tailored psychological consultation or mental health education training for your organization, feel free to reach out.
