Dr. Nii Addy, a prominent neuroscientist and mental health expert, is also a staunch believer in educating his clients about the importance of sound mental health and the ways they can achieve it. As an Associate Professor at Yale University for nearly 10 years, Dr. Nii has a vast amount of knowledge and insight on mental health, especially topics such as anxiety and depression, that he is now available to share through his speaking engagements.
Conducting research on extremely timely and prevalent topics such as factors contributing to anxiety and depression in the workplace, Dr. Nii’s fascination towards this field of study is grounded in the desire to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health issues. Dr. Nii has spent his career learning and educating people on these subjects. Through his career he has had the opportunity to work with clients like the National Alliance on Mental Health, the Association of Behavioural and Cognitive Therapies and even the ex-NBA player Allan Houston.
Through his presentations on mental health support, equality, diversity and faith, Dr. Nii aims to provide audiences with holistic and integrated tactics to adopt towards mental health. Little by little he is set to change the way we work and view mental health issues, simply by understanding more about them. His research in cognitive behaviour is widely sought-after and he is often invited to speak on platforms such as the National Public Radio and to write for publications like Source magazine. Dr. Nii is also the host of the podcast Addy Hour where he brings on guests like athletes, faith leaders, mental health advocates, etc. and discusses a myriad of subjects with them.
Having been a part of speaking engagements in the USA as well as Europe, Dr. Nii is a seasoned speaker. Every time he speaks to his audience, he leaves their lives a little more enriched and a little less jaded, which is the mark of an excellent speaker.
