Mental Health Consulting for Organizations
Almost two decades in this field, on the bench, behind the podium, and in the therapy chair, has taught me something: healthy teams don’t happen by accident. Whether it’s a hockey dressing room, a financial advisory firm, a university campus, or a church staff, the highest functioning groups are the ones who talk openly about mental health instead of around it.
I consult with organizations, corporations, financial institutions, sports teams, schools, universities, first responders, and churches on all things mental health, so your workplace, group, or team becomes the healthiest version of itself. Think of me as the person you call when you want your “team,” however you define that, to function better, communicate better, and actually enjoy showing up together.
Based in the US, or connecting from anywhere online? I offer virtual consulting, keynotes, and coaching worldwide through Alive Coaching Group, and you can find my full speaking and media kit at barbaraegan.com.
- Education that’s interactive, practical, and personalized, not theoretical. Signs, symptoms, and real strategies for stress management, burnout, anxiety, depression, work/life balance, and communication, with tools your people can use right away.
- Workshops and Keynote Speaking, in person or online, for staff trainings, conferences, schools and universities, and Lunch & Learns.
- Team Talks, tailoring mental health and mental performance to your team’s and athlete’s needs: sport psychology strategies for pre-game preparation, improving confidence, consistency and character, team building, and leadership.
- Resources that stick around after I leave the room: exercises, videos, and educational materials for your team members, employees, staff, or participants.

Coaching: Personal & Professional Growth and Development
Leadership, team building, and personal and professional development, available in Kelowna and online across Canada and the US through Alive Coaching Group.
I get high performers. I was one, and I still am one, just in a different jersey these days. As a former elite athlete (Shattuck-St. Mary’s, USA Hockey, NCAA Division I with Ohio State) and now a clinician, consultant, and coach, I understand what it takes to chase excellence, and I understand how easily that chase can start to define your worth instead of just your work.
- I help high achievers show up at their best in sport, business, work, music, and every other arena they’re pursuing their passion in.
- If you’ve struggled to turn it off, relax, or find a healthy work/life balance, or caught yourself believing your performance equals your worth, you’re not alone.
- We work on goal setting, motivation, sense of direction, and purpose and fulfillment, because chasing a goal without a why tends to burn people out fast.
From Clinical to Practical
I lean on Strength-Based Psychology in everything I do, taking clinical language off the page and turning it into practical, personalized tools and interactive talks that actually stick.
Not every client goes through a formal Strengths Finder Assessment, but for those who want to go deeper, I offer a personalized write up and one on one debrief of your unique Top 5 Strengths and how to apply them in real life. This is the same team building and leadership tool used by 90% of Fortune 500 companies, and for good reason.
People who know and use their strengths are:
