Career Counseling and Coaching in Dale City, Virginia.

It can be very hard to find exactly what you want to do in life. Uncovering one's purpose, though supposedly intuitive, can be elusive and transitive. What's more, messages from friends, family and society can add to the confusion. You may feel like you know what you are doing right now is not quite right, but you are not sure what is the next step. Or the thing you love to do does not fit with other dreams you have for your life. Working together we will unpack the complex pieces of career and purpose, allowing you greater freedom and clarity from which to make decisions. You do not have to know right now what is next, only that you wish things to be different.

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.

As we grow and change throughout life, we sometimes need to make major changes. Particularly at mid-life, we experience profound changes in our values and priorities. What you have done in the past may or may not fit you anymore. Or perhaps you have never found your niche. If you are contemplating a cereer change, I can assist you in understanding yourself and your needs, so that you can make an optimal choice in the future.

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.

In American society, our careers help define us. And finding purpose in our careers gives us a sense of worth. As a therapist I see that although a career may pay our expenses it should not define us. It should, however, offer some benefit in either our personal development or fulfillment. I work with my clients to find ways to identify what is useful and discuss where these skills could be applied.

Insight assists young adults struggling to find their direction. Clinicians individualize treatment to explore barriers that might be holding back individuals from succeeding in an educational path or career choice. A combination of therapy, coaching, and psychological testing may be used to identify a plan. We also help those who feel stagnant in their current jobs and are looking to change careers as well as those approaching retirement.

Are you growing bored, unappreciated or frustrated at work? A person's God-given temperament should always be considered when determining a career path. An assessment will be administered to assist in career/occupational guidance. This assessment will aid in understanding and identifying an individual's strengths, weaknesses, stressors, intellectual energies, decision making skills, and the desire to take on responsibilities. Based on the results of the assessment, and with my guidance, the client will become more aware of careers and/or jobs which may, or may not, serve them well in the areas of emotional and mental stimulation and satisfaction.

We spend most of our lives working. When our work doesn’t feel fulfilling, then our lives can feel empty. I believe that everyone has the potential to live a life that they find meaningful. We will work together to help you understand your values, identify your unique strengths, and realize your worth as an individual. This will serve as the foundation to help you unlock your potential. Together, we will work to help you build the confidence and skills you need to pursue the kind of career you want.
