My Approach:

Helping young professionals prepare for managing change, adversity, or stress in their life is my sweet spot. Through compelling stories, a well researched framework, and actionable steps, I help guide participants to a place where they can self-reflect and then focus outward to their relationships and connections with others. With over 15+ years of presentation and facilitation experience, I am comfortable and feel at home in the front of room or on the screen.

As of February, 2020 Dr. Zunick proudly serves as the Director, Community Giving for the leading non-profit dedicated to the mental health and suicide prevention for our nations teens and young adults.
