Booking guide
How to choose and book a mental health speaker
What mental health speakers bring to your event
A mental health keynote opens a conversation many workplaces find hard to start, and gives people practical ways to manage stress, avoid burnout and support one another.
Dan Harris, former co-anchor of Nightline and Good Morning America, speaks on burnout and meditation. Social psychologist Dr. Amy Cuddy, a Harvard lecturer and bestselling author, brings the research view, and Dr. Danielle Griffin looks at how organizational design affects burnout. Trent Shelton, a former NFL player, and Paul de Gelder, a former Navy bomb disposal diver and shark attack survivor, speak from lived experience about resilience and recovery.
How to choose the right mental health speaker
Start with what you want people to take away, then narrow the list:
- Research or lived experience. Researchers and clinicians give frameworks and evidence; personal stories make the subject easier to talk about.
- Individual or organizational. Some talks give people tools for their own wellbeing; others help leaders change how work is designed.
- Tone. Match the speaker to your audience and the moment, whether that is a wellbeing week, a leadership meeting or a large general session.
- Budget and format. Compare the fee ranges and travel locations on each card, and check who offers a virtual keynote.

Mental health speaker FAQs
How much does it cost to hire a mental health keynote speaker?
Fees for the mental health speakers we represent range from about $7,000 to $210,000. The fee depends on the speaker, your date, the location and the format. Each card shows the current fee range.
Is a mental health keynote right for a corporate audience?
Yes. Many organizations book one for wellbeing programs, Mental Health Awareness Month, leadership meetings and all-hands events. Share your goals when you check availability so the speaker can pitch the talk to your audience.
Can mental health speakers present virtually?
Some can. Use the In Person or Virtual filter, and check each profile for a virtual fee.
Will the speaker tailor the keynote to our workplace?
Ask when you check availability. Many speakers hold a planning call to learn about your audience and adjust their examples to fit.
Should we pair the keynote with resources for employees?
It helps. Let attendees know about your employee assistance program or other support before and after the session, since a keynote often prompts people to reach out.
