“I do what I do because I want to see more children grow up happier,” says keynote speaker Maureen Healy. An educator, award-winning author, and leader in the field of children’s emotional health, Maureen’s bestselling book, The Emotionally Healthy Child, gives adults the ideas they need to nurture positive emotional health in today’s children. The book also includes a preface from the His Holiness the Dalai Lama that reads, “I hope Maureen Healy’s book – The Emotionally Healthy Child – will contribute to a more wholesome education for future generations.”
Speaker Maureen’s previous book, Growing Happy Kids, focuses on cultivating confidence and notably won several awards.
Complementing Maureen’s practical experience, she is traditionally trained in the field of child development and positive psychology. She holds a bachelor’s and an MBA from Clark University and completed her Ph.D. coursework in child clinical psychology from Fielding Graduate University. Additionally, Maureen has authored a social and emotional learning (SEL) curriculum for K-8 students, which has been implemented in several independent schools.
Her insight into how to help today’s children grow up healthier and happier is why audiences love her, and, as your keynote speaker, it is why you will love her, too.
