Career Counseling is a therapeutic process that will help you come to know yourself and the world of work so you can make the educational and career decisions that harmonize with the life you envision.

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.

My approach to helping clients clarify their career goals is holistic in nature. I use cognitive-behavioral therapies which can help clients identify the type of work they would like to do and how to purse it. If a client desires, I also use neurofeedback and Yoga psychology to heighten a clients ability to focus, remain optimistic and plan for the future.
