Career Counseling and Coaching in Winter Garden, Florida.

You will give thousands of hours, and immeasurable effort to your career. Shouldn’t you find at least some amount of fulfillment in this large part of your life? If you are going to work so hard just to get started in a career, don't you want to be sure you will enjoy it? Career counseling will help you discover your strengths, weaknesses, and tendencies so you can work to pursue a career you are likely to be happy in. I also offer Professional Coaching if you want to stay in your current field and need help finding ways to reduce stress, maximize your potential, or move up the ladder.

I’ve often helped my clients through difficult transitions, including changes in career. I’ve guided those in college to navigate issues of meaning, purpose, and direction, have helped middle-aged men navigate the emotional stress and financial burden of providing for kids and elderly parents, and have coached successful men through transitions around retirement, role changes, and leaving a legacy. At Lion Counseling, our mission is to help you escape the cages that hold you back and become the lion God created you to be.

Choosing an initial career path or making a career change can feel daunting. Maybe you feel immense pressure to get it right from the start and end up feeling completely overwhelmed because of the amount of choices there are. I challenge you to reframe and stop thinking about what happens if you make the wrong choice; think about what your life will look like with the perfect career for you and go from there! Making the right choice starts with understanding your values, skills, and interests. We'll start there and work together through talk therapy and assessments to find the career that fits into your ideal lifestyle.

Let's figure out your purpose in life - not just your job. I love to help people figure out what gets them "in the zone" where they love what they are doing. Sometimes life gets in the way of figuring out your real talents and skills. We may originally take a job for money, and then one day realize that your are not happy. That's when we can figure out what your unique talent and skills are. Life is not meant to be just tolerated: let's figure out what you love to do!

When I retired from professional football, I went on to work for the NFL to help other players navigate the difficult process of transitioning careers. This, combined with my education in counseling and life coaching, positions me well to help you discern what’s next for your career. I'll use an honest and supportive approach in our time together.

Career counseling with me is about aligning your professional path with your values, strengths, and goals. Whether you’re navigating a career transition, feeling stuck in your current role, or seeking greater fulfillment, I provide a supportive, tailored approach to help you gain clarity and confidence. Together, we’ll explore your passions, identify obstacles, and create actionable steps toward your ideal career. You’ll leave with greater self-awareness, practical tools, and a renewed sense of purpose to move forward successfully.
