Chris L. Johnson, PsyD, Founder
Chris L. Johnson brings a unique, fresh perspective to the work of transforming individuals and organizations--the practice of mindfulness and embodied learning.
Chris is a respected clinical and consulting psychologist who has worked extensively with leaders and teams for more than 20 years. She brings to her practice a deep understanding of human behavior and dedication to developing collaborative, authentic and generative leadership in all domains of life.
Chris is best known for her work with leaders and teams to develop their leadership presence, to surface and creatively engage with conflict, to clarify goals and develop competencies and to take focused, coordinated action towards results that matter.
An interactive and experiential teacher, Chris has designed and led successful trainings that address stress, traumatic stress and conflict, improved communications and effective networking, creativity, leadership, ethics and decision-making.
If you look at the intersection of stress and everyday life you'll discover mindfulness; at its core you'll discover resiliency, creativity and the possibility for transformation. This involves active learning.
One of Chris' core values is ongoing learning. To that end she integrates the strands of her learning from the following places into all her work at Q4 Consulting:
- Doctoral work in psychology, from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology in Chicago where she teaches in the Executive and Professional Development Program
- Training in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) from the Center for Mindfulness in Medicine, Health Care and Society
- Coach training from both New Ventures West and the Strozzi Institute, where she teaches leadership development
- Organizational development work from DePaul University
- Family business consulting from the Family Firm Institute
