A core element of navigating career decisions is being able to know, understand and trust yourself. My understanding of personality types (and the strengths and weaknesses of each) is just one way that I help clients to make sense of themselves in places where they feel unsure of the way forward. Additionally, I also help clients work through any underlying dynamics which are making it difficult for them to better hear what their own intuition (i.e., their "gut") is trying to tell them. My overall goal is help you gain clarity about yourself, and whatever possibilities you are considering, so that you can experience peace regarding whatever you decide vocationally.
