Bring some nature into your next conference or work event!
A warm and engaging public speaker, Dimity loves sharing her knowledge and passion for all things nature and health.
With almost 30 years of connecting to people in her medical practice and a deep understanding of the science underpinning today’s ecological and health challenges, Dimity can speak on a wide variety of topics. These range from how the natural world sustains human wellbeing through to ways nature-based health approaches can help us cope with the stressors of modern life. If you’re not sure what biodiversity, climate change and other environmental problems have to do with your health, then Dimity is the speaker for you! Used to translating science into a language we can all understand, Dimity demystifies topics we often feel confused by.
Dimity is often asked to speak about topics like:
• nature prescriptions and how regular time just ‘being’ in nature can help you get through the day
• why nature play is so essential for children
• how to truly ‘green’ your workplace or healthcare service.
Dimity doesn’t just speak ‘at’ people. She invites personal reflection and sharing, especially stories of wonderous moments in nature.

Looking for an innovative experiential workshop for your seminar, community program or conference? Dimity offers 60-90 minute workshops on a variety of topics. These can be shaped to suit your program and ideally involve time outside connecting with nature.

testimonials
We asked Dr Dimity to deliver a speech for the launch of the Yuin Healing Trail here in the Shoalhaven run by Ngungwulah Aboriginal Corporation in May on behalf of Doctors for the Environment. What a speech! Dimity is an absolute natural and it was a truly informative speech linking our personal and planetary wellbeing in a way that inspired all present. She gave much of the scientific background that helped those present that evening think more deeply into reciprocal healing between people and Country and the importance of Two Eyed seeing as we integrate First Nations and western viewpoints. The night before we invited her to host a book launch at the beautiful Wax Lyrical bookshop in Berry NSW. It was a stroke of intuitive brilliance to have Dimity with us. This was a sell out and she held the audience captivated. Thank you Dr Dimity.
I was lucky enough to participate in the nature connection experience that Dimity facilitated at the 2023 Doctors for the Environment Australia conference, IDEA23. This experience left a mark on both me and countless other attendees. Dimity illuminated the therapeutic potential of immersing oneself in the natural world, drawing from her own experiences with nature prescriptions for patients. Her emphasis on the vital link between biodiversity and human well-being underscored the urgency of fostering a deeper connection to our environment within the realm of healthcare. Dr. Williams' session illustrated the profound influence of nature on both physical and mental health. Her nurturing and compassionate personality further deepened the experience, making it challenging to discern whether the improvements we felt stemmed solely from nature's embrace or from the combined impact of nature's healing prowess and Dr. Williams' warmth and empathy.
