Speaking
Please email Caroline at caroline@carolinescooper.com with your speaking opportunities or complete the form at the bottom of this page.
Are you looking for someone to speak at an event or retreat? I would welcome the opportunity to offer you encouragement as a teacher, presenter, or guest speaker. I enjoy preparing unique and interactive presentations and engaging the attendees. The majority of my speaking engagements include a time for discussion or hands-on exercises to reinforce the topic. I have given presentations on mental health, postpartum depression, Christian living, and Bible study for mental health conferences, church groups, and community organizations.
I am also a RESPECT Speaker. The RESPECT Institute is sponsored by the Missouri Mental Health Foundation. RESPECT speakers share their recovery journey in a variety of settings as a way to bring awareness to mental health issues and support for the idea that recovery is possible.
I view speaking as an extension of my writing. Many times, I use content from books and articles as references when preparing presentations on topics such as mental health, wellness, Christian living, and Bible study. Check out my Writing page for more information on my books and Bible studies.
