When people hit a point in their life where they simply don't know what they'd like to do with themselves and what would give them a sense of accomplishment in life, they turn to a therapist for guidance. I assist others to find themselves and to set goals that are attainable and realistic. Oftentimes, people find that through therapy they are able to become "unstuck" and to connect with what works naturally for them.

Sometimes your success in the workplace has a lot to do with your work ethic, mindset and skill level. Learning to be your best can often translate to more success at work, getting work and retaining work. Uncovering what you are passionate about can also be very motivating and rewarding. My office is virtual so it is convenient and less costly. If you are unemployed please mention it so I can give you a discounted rate.

Your career is a major part of your life, taking up at least 40 hours (probably more) of each week, not to mention the effects on your social and personal life outside of work. Achieving career satisfaction and work/life balance is difficult. I can help you explore where you are on this spectrum of satisfaction and find out what is missing. Together we can develop a plan that sets you up for success, whether it's about changing careers/jobs, changing roles within your job, or changing something within yourself. Work doesn't have to be something you dread. It can be something you feel fulfilled by and inspired to be a part of.

Changing careers or standing at a cross road while trying to figure out your next move can be very challenging and frustrating.

Let's go over ideas in a discovery coaching session to help you identify your goals and next steps. I help my clients through the process of change and transition gain a sense of confidence and take back their power. You are not alone!
