Mental Health & Suicide Prevention Education That Goes Beyond Awareness
Jayne Madigan is a Mental Health & Suicide Prevention Speaker who teaches practical skills for emotional safety, resilience, and connection.
In addition to supporting survivors of suicide loss through Healing After Suicide™, Jayne works with workplaces, healthcare systems, schools, nonprofits, and community organizations to provide prevention-focused education that helps people navigate emotional distress, chronic stress, grief, and disconnection — safely and compassionately.
Her talks create emotionally safe, non-triggering spaces while equipping audiences with real-life tools they can use immediately.
Why This Work Matters
Suicide prevention requires more than awareness campaigns and crisis response.
It requires skills — skills that help people:
Feel safer in their bodies and emotions
Regulate stress and overwhelm
Stay connected during difficult conversations
Recognize when support is needed
Respond with compassion instead of fear
Jayne’s work focuses on prevention through emotional safety and connection, helping individuals and organizations build environments where people are more likely to speak up, seek support, and feel less alone.
About Jayne
Jayne Madigan is a 34-year survivor of suicide loss after losing four loved ones. Her lived experience, combined with years of integrative mental health education, informs a grounded, compassionate approach to suicide prevention and emotional well-being.
When traditional approaches failed to fully address the impact of grief and chronic stress, Jayne turned toward evidence-informed, mind–body practices that support healing at both the emotional and physiological level. Today, she blends lived experience with trauma-aware tools drawn from neuroscience, somatic practices, and emotional regulation education.
Rather than focusing solely on awareness, Jayne emphasizes skill-building — helping people understand their stress responses, restore emotional regulation, and foster meaningful human connection in everyday life.
