The Event

As practitioners who often work with a ‘Whole Person” approach, we may at times enter into emotional territory with a client in which we feel that that client would benefit from the support of a therapist.  

  • What are the critical signs that indicate that a client is in need of mental health services and what is the right time and way to make a referral?   

  • How do we assess our own level of skill at coaching a client through an emotionally challenging event vs. knowing when we should refer out? 

  • How do we effectively and responsibility coach our clients through sadness, loss and grief?  

  • How do we, as coaches, determine the limitations of our skills? 

  • How do we become more aware of when our own stress levels and responses may be influencing our ability to assess or intervene in the best way possible for our clients?

This event will feature a panel of experts including:

  • Jeremy Robinson MCC, an Executive Coach, business advisor and author, and trained psychotherapist;

  • Michelle Tenzyk, PCC, who has made advocating for mental health a cornerstone of her life’s work and coaching practice and who has written and spoken about her personal journey;

  • Lisa Arrigo, a psychotherapist practicing for over 20 years, specializing in treating anxiety, trauma, depression, addiction and issues impacting LGBTQ individuals and their families;

  • Colette Brown, who specializes in psychotherapy for individuals, couples and families; parenting; relationships; aging; stressors stemming from cultural identity; life and role transitions; anxiety, depression, and self-esteem.

  • The panel is moderated by Dr. Lauren Borden, MA, PhD, principal of Lauren Borden Coaching.

Colette I. Brown, MA, MA Ed., LMSW

Website:

Colette specializes in psychotherapy for individuals, couples and families; parenting; relationships; aging; stressors stemming from cultural identity; life and role transitions; anxiety, depression, and self-esteem. Works with adults and teenagers.

Colette’s life experience has given her insight into couples and families navigating careers, parenting, educational systems and the unique stressors of living in New York City. For 15 years, she was a teacher working in NYC’s specialized high schools and that experience informed her understanding of how our intersectional identities influence how comfortably we move in our world today. Her personal experience informs what she brings to the therapy room, which is a foundational belief that personal, cultural and societal narratives can influence, adversely or positively, who we are and what we believe we can achieve.

She uses an eclectic approach to counseling including psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, narrative, systemic, critical race theory and psychoanalytic theory. She adapts play therapy techniques to help people navigate life’s provocations. Also, as an avid gamer, she uses her knowledge of “Geek Culture” as a mindset and model for integrating positive applications of video and tabletop games, RPGs and other staples of “Geek” life.
