Brad Siroski Biography

Brad Siroski, when given the opportunity to share his story in high schools, jumped at the chance and quickly realized just how influential your story can be. This began his journey into speaking, educating, and advocating for mental health and substance use. After overcoming his own battles, Brad quickly realized that his most powerful tool was his voice. A recurring theme in Brad’s speaking is perseverance. He overcame many hurdles in his addictions and was once again tested when he received a cancer diagnosis in 2015. Brad faced this head on and is currently living cancer free. This experience gives Brad a unique perspective on how people are treated when struggling with addictions in comparison to struggling with cancer.

Brad Siroski is an engaging speaker and quickly captures the attention of his audience. He has a no-nonsense, straight-forward approach, which combined with his sense of humour, is refreshing. Brad Siroski is easy to relate to, as he is more than willing to share his personal stories. These things, mixed with his unorthodox use of poetry while speaking, make his presentations informative and unforgettable. His content ranges from lived experience to education on a wide range of mental health and addiction topics.

Brad Siroski received a Mental Health and Addictions diploma through the Saskatchewan Indian Institute of Technology. He has learned a lot about the Indigenous culture and holds these teachings in high regard. He has also incorporated a holistic approach of healing into his professional and personal life. Over the last 8 years Brad has worked as an Outreach Addictions Counsellor and now works part-time as an Addictions Counsellor at a residential substance use treatment program, which allows him the time to focus on his passion – public speaking. He continues to work with communities, schools and corporations to provide mental health and addiction support through his educational groups and public speaking events based around Mental Wellness, Addiction Recovery and Holistic Healing.

He also operates a private practice. He is trained in Motivational Interviewing and Dialectical Behavioural Therapy. He has also recently become a certified Gambling Counsellor and is actively engaged in further education. Brad Siroski was an integral part of the development of two Mental Wellness programs. He received the Safety Centered Leadership Award in 2022 for his contributions to the design of the Service Hospitality mental wellness modules.

In March of 2023, he was honoured by the province for his contributions to the Mental Health and Addictions field with the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee award.

His relatable story and genuine approach created a safe space for meaningful discussions and made a lasting impact. Beyond his speaking engagements, he has been a valuable resource for our leadership team, providing guidance and support in navigating various situations.

David Sterling

Regional Operations Manager

"We brought Brad in to speak to our staff on Blue Monday. We have done a number of topics over the years, but Brad was able to speak specifically to his experiences. He is raw and authentic and his talk is impactful. As we operate in a male dominated industry, it was refreshing to hear someone be vulnerable about the path that has gotten them to where they are."

Carleen Frey

Human Resource Manager  
Wright Construction Western Inc.

"Brad’s story of mental health and addiction battles was riveting. He shared some very tough life battles in a way that our students could handle. He ensured that he offered encouragement and hope when he said, “their beautiful culture changed my life.” I know that our students would have felt touched by that. I appreciated Brad’s messages of the reality of running from problems and using drugs and alcohol to solve them. His message of resilience, hope and love were beautiful and well received."

Principal
Stobart Community School

"We asked Brad to speak to our workforce about mental health during our annual health and safety day. He shared his experience with mental health at a young age and how it led to addictions. His stories of overcoming challenges were engaging and relevant to our team. He connected his experiences to workplace dynamics in a predominantly male environment, reinforcing that it is acceptable to ask for help and show emotion. His presentation was humble, clear, and well received by employees. Brad was professional, responsive, and easy to work with."
