Convene Counseling and Coaching
Move beyond what is holding you back.
Picture yourself as the person you truly want to be. At Convene Counseling and Coaching, you can move beyond what’s holding you back and step into the life you want to create. Whether your goal is to heal from the past, find balance in the present, or build confidence for the future, we walk with you every step of the way.
I help teens, individuals, and couples navigate the challenges of everyday life and high-pressure careers with honesty, courage, and clarity.
Before becoming a therapist, I spent decades in the entertainment industry and served in leadership roles in both nonprofit and civic life. That experience gave me a deep understanding of the unique stressors that come with high-visibility roles and fast-paced careers.
My practice blends therapeutic insight with practical coaching tools to help clients make real, lasting change.
My clients range from adolescents sorting out identity and stress, to couples working through conflict or preparing for marriage, to high-performing professionals—including performers, executives, and elected officials—who need a private, trusted space to work through complex personal and relational issues.
I take a solution-focused, strength-based, and client-centered approach—meaning we’ll focus on what’s working, what matters most to you, and how to create the kind of change you want to see.
I also integrate elements of narrative therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and systems therapy to help clients understand their stories, patterns, and relational dynamics in meaningful ways.
When appropriate, I use tools like:
– CliftonStrengths and the Enneagram to support personal growth and career clarity
– PREPARE/ENRICH and SYMBIS assessments to help couples build deeper connection and effective communication
– Career and encore coaching for those exploring new directions in mid-life or beyond
– Addiction recovery support, providing a judgment-free space for healing and rebuilding
