Career Counseling and Coaching in Newark, Texas.

Careers are integral to the identities of many people, while for others careers are simply means for attaining a happy life. Whether you’re developing your first career or looking to switch careers, I use a combination of assessment batteries and counseling to explore my clients’ goals, preferences, and aptitudes to identify their career path and develop a plan for achieving it.

Are you a high-achieving man looking for career guidance? Executive coaching has its place, but I provide something different. I don’t give you advice, give you homework, or try to motivate you. Instead, like an emotional surgeon, I use research-proven EMDR therapy to uncover the emotional barriers and insecurities that hold you back and heal them at their source. If you’re a hard-working man on the verge of greatness, this can be the step necessary for personal and professional breakthrough. If you’re a highly successful man who's already conquered your professional goals, this process can help you recalibrate your priorities, strengthen your relationships, and leave a lasting legacy.

Making a decision about what you want to do for the rest of your life can be an overwhelming process. I have helped hundreds of clients make successful decisions about what career or major they would like to pursue. We will spend time talking about your values, skills, interests and abilities and you will complete assessments in these areas. We will also review the resources that are available to help you make a decision about a college major, career path or change in careers. At the end of our time together, you will feel more confident in your knowledge about what is available to you in the world of work and more confident that you are making an informed decision about your career path.

Are you fulfilling your purpose or are you not living into your potential? Do you wake up thinking "I was made for this" when it comes to career or do you struggle to get motivated for what lies ahead. Career satisfaction is highly correlated with life-satisfaction. Careers matter beyond how we generate an income. Learn to unblock where you are being held back. Learn the skills essential to make that next career move. Develop leadership skills to grow your company. Identify places you or your company need to make changes for your health and well-being or that of your employees. When we are happy and feel cared for at work, our productivity increases and so does our life satisfaction.

Whether it's choosing an initial career, a later-in--life career switch, managing interpersonal professional relationships or general job stress, Lake Austin Psychotherapy offers specialized career guidance and support. EMDR is also used to maximize professional performance potential including public speaking or business negotiations. We also offer treatment for PTSD specific to frontline health care workers including EMDR and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy under medical direction.

Often when we feel frustrated with our career we need assistance not only in examining where our frustration is coming from, but in separating work from those we work with. What is the struggle? Feeling unfulfilled? Wanting more of a challenge? Not feeling satisfied at work due to the duties or a lack of relationships with those we work with? Not feeling appreciated or recognized for your efforts? Discovering the issue is the first step to solving the problem.

Life transitions are one of my specialties and career related issues tend to be one of the main components linked to major life transitions.

While most career counselors love to give you capacity based profiles of what your talents and interests are for your best bet career choices, Grey Matters international believes that most people make predictably irrational decisions and then after making them learn way to make them fit into their identities using various types of rationalizations and strategies. We are able to assist folks in career counseling type settings by giving a deeper look at their decision making profile so they can better understand where the core frustration or desire is coming from in the world of work.

People who were in Special Education, especially those with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, often cannot take common vocational tests because of the level of language used in those tests. I have a vocational interest test available that uses pictures, rather than words, to determine what kinds of jobs would be best for such adults.
