Speaking, Workshops & Training

Past speaking engagements

Session Topics

Every group is different, so I like to tailor each session to each specific audience. It can be a talk, a hands-on workshop, a Q&A, or a mix of all three. If you have a topic in mind, we can shape something that fits your goals and your people.

  • For businesses, teams, therapists or community leaders: Teams don’t fail because they don’t have good ideas. They fail because they don’t communicate effectively and miss important emotional information in the room. Matt offers an experiential opportunity for your group to meet in a new way that will improve communication and connection.

  • Practical tools for noticing burnout early, regulating stress in real time, and building sustainable rhythms that protect both mental health and performance.

  • A compassionate, grounded look at grief—what’s normal, what can feel confusing, and how people and communities can support healing without trying to “fix” it.

  • For therapists, leaders, ministry teams, educators, and caregivers: When you have ethical dilemmas, what is your process to make the best decision? Matt presents a clear step by step process to give guidance and confidence to your next dilemma.

  • For ministry leaders and therapists: A practical guide to what each offers, where they overlap, how to collaborate well, and when a referral to clinical support is the best next step.

  • For therapists or community leaders: Matt shares important considerations, crucial questions, and a model he has used to start therapy groups so that they are sustainable and are set up to thrive.

  • For businesses, teams, companies and apartment complexes: A clear, practical overview of what therapy is (and isn’t), what to expect, and how to know when it could be helpful—for you or someone you care about.

"Matt is very thoughtful and conscientious in developing his trainings. He has an ability to anticipate students' questions and put himself in the role of the learner, so the material is never boring or inaccessible. He also comes across as very knowledgeable and down-to-earth at the same time."

-Former Director of Training at Deep Centered Mental Health
