Speaking & Keynotes

As an acclaimed speaker, I can help elevate your company, organization, or brand to maximize productivity, reduce burnout, improve mental wellness, and support workplace development.

Custom events, workshops, conferences, and more.

I offer speaking engagements at conferences, workshops, retreats, keynotes, and more and am always inspired to create bespoke workshops, panels, and discussions according the needs of the organization or company.

As a licensed clinical psychologist, I base my engagements on evidence-based practice and create content that is approachable, practical, and applicable to real life.

  • <autoplay speed=5></autoplay>“By far the best presentation I have heard or seen on mental health and stress.

    Dr. Stern’s presentation was so detailed and well put together. She was also very accommodating with all the questions we asked. Dr. Stern definitely made me realize the importance of taking time for myself and also that there is no stigma around mental health and stress and it's ok to talk about it. I would highly recommend Dr. Stern to anyone.”

  • “Dr. Jessica Stern is not only super talented but she is also such a wonderful team-spirited person to work with.

    We hired Dr. Jessica Stern to craft and host two workshops during the Wondermind Newsstand activation in NYC in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, and could not have been happier! She crafted two unique hour-long workshops, inclusive of consumer Q+As, custom worksheets, and an interactive experience for guests to visualize the concepts at hand. Dr. Jessica Stern is an incredible speaker too - very engaging, educational, and fun. I want to work with Jessica for every Wondermind event moving forward!

  • "She is so relatable and knowledgeable, that companies we work with have asked for her to present year after year.

    Dr. Jessica Stern has been instrumental in the education of the American Heart Association's NYC Heart Challenge participants on mental health. Dr. Stern brings the information to a relatable level for participants and engages them with relevant facts, tips, and background. Having joined a few of Dr. Stern's information sessions, she has an excellent energy and engagement with those looking to learn more information. We cannot thank Dr. Stern enough for her time, talent, and expertise.”

    Meagan H. — Sr Development Director, Heart Challenge, American Heart Association

  • “I truly felt that she provided us with a fantastic overview and provided a positive, hopeful message to everyone that participated.

    In September I was fortunate to attend an online presentation on mental health awareness with Dr. Stern that was provided to our offices. I must say she did not disappoint. I went into the meeting with an open mind, but came out of it with my mind blown. You can truly feel her authentic nature, and desire to impart knowledge around mental health. She left us with many resources for both additional information and providers, should we desire to continue our journey towards better mental health awareness FANTASTIC PROGRAM!”

    Frances R. — Keynote Attendee

  • "I would absolutely recommend Dr. Stern to a colleague, friend or family member.

    I participated in a webinar presented by Dr. Stern through my office. This was by far the best mental health webinar I have attended as it was straight forward and given in laymen terms. Dr. Stern was personable and relatable.”

KEYNOTE TOPICS

KEYNOTE TOPICS

  • We all know about burnout and we all theoretically know how to bust it. But why does it remain so hard? This keynote will discuss the ways in which our burnt our cycles remain cyclical with practical science-based recommendations on how to finally beat it.

  • ADHD is growing in intrigue, particularly in the depths of social media, however, so much misinformation makes it difficult to decipher what is true vs. not.

    A popular longstanding myth: individuals with ADHD are lazy and will struggle forever. This keynote focuses on the meaningful ways in which ADHD can be a struggle, as well as powerful ways to find the strengths amongst the struggles.

  • We are all about the hustle, but the hustle gets exhausting and can counterproductively diminish the balance so many of us strive for. This keynote focuses on ways to work smarter, not harder, and create productivity systems that are values-based and sustainable.

  • Loneliness and social disconnection are a big issue these days and we need to do something about it. This keynote focuses on background information about how this problem came to be with very practical science-based tips to help build new connections and strengthen the valuable ones you already have.

Here is a sampling of my most popular keynote presentation requests, but a variety of other topics are available as well.
