Converge Nexus – Coaching & Development

OUR MISSION

Converge Coaching & Development leads the field in its holistic approach towards career development and personal growth, working with high potential, high performing individuals to ensure they are able to craft a life and career that meets their needs and offers satisfaction in all areas, professional and personal.

At Converge, we want everyone to feel confident and empowered in the workplace. High-performers deserve to enjoy a healthy, happy working/life instead of feeling pulled by competing demands. At Converge we work with individuals and workplaces to make this a reality, making it our mission to support and develop people in a variety of ways, whether that’s coaching them to make key career changes such as promotion or career change, or through transition from maternity and paternity/shared parental leave and back into the work force, or with psychotherapy and counselling services.

Converge also works with line managers in group programmes to help companies retain staff, encourage diverse teams, boost employee happiness, mental health and wellbeing and performance. Converge combines psychotherapy and coaching techniques, methodologies and exercises within unique programmes which provide effective solutions designed specifically for individuals and organisations.

Converge bridges the gap between professional career development and personal lives. It offers coaching, both 1:1 and group, and psychotherapy to ensure balance and success in all areas of mind, body, career and finance. I believe there is a need to bring all these elements together in a way that helps people regain and maintain their personal identity throughout their personal and professional lives.

we are investing in the people who invest in everyone else

ABOUT THE FOUNDER

Christina Johnson, a 20-year career in Human Resources across a variety of sectors helped me discover that my real passion lies in coaching individuals and teams to achieve their goals. I qualified as an executive coach and set up a coaching practice within a city law firm, focusing on team culture, talent management and performance improvement. I came to realise, however, that there was still something missing in terms of unlocking women’s true potential.

As a passionate solver of puzzles it occurred to me that my strength lies in finding solutions. I founded Converge to help women build their own solutions to the many problems facing them today, from gender bias and pay inequality to barriers to career progression. I took my love of exploring human potential and holistic systems to the next level, qualifying in Neurolinguistic Programming and the Myers Briggs Type Indicator psychometric tool, studying yoga therapy, career coaching, organisation design and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, which brings it all together.

My approach is now firmly grounded in integrative and somatic coaching methodologies and psychodynamic analysis to ensure whole-person solutions that enable women to realise their personal and professional ambitions.
