Testimonials

“She approached the topic of mental illness from a unique standpoint: she not only spoke about her own experiences, but also brought in broader mental health discussion points as well.
Attendees raved about her presentation for months after the event, and her skills in engaging an audience did not go unnoticed. Ms. Knight exudes a passion and understanding of the mental health field that is rare to behold, and I am confident that she will excel in any position as a public speaker.”

“Amber P. Knight was a patient panelist for the Patient and Family Education Day hosted by the Dauten Family Center for Bipolar Treatment Innovation at Massachusetts General Hospital. Amber was an incredible asset to the panel and spoke to the audience with an enthusiasm and professionalism that defines her as a public speaker. Amber’s presentation exuded both honesty about the reality of mental health disorders but also hope on its ability to be managed, and this balance allowed her to connect with the audience in a much deeper way. We are very grateful for Amber’s participation on the panel and believe she would excel in any role as a public speaker in the realm of mental health.”
