After a major career change, I transitioned into the counseling field, but call on my prior experience in working with clients experiencing workplace stress.
Welcome! Are you hoping to change and improve your life? Would you like to worry less and be more hopeful? Have better personal or workplace relationships? Or are you ready to address a situation or challenge that is holding you back? Change is hard for most of us, and I believe that my experience as a Career Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor can help bring about the life improvements you desire. My counseling approach includes all aspects of well being; restorative sleep, physical activity, spending time outdoors, healthy eating, limiting caffeine & alcohol, self-talk and investing in supportive relationships.

I began my career in the mental health field as a therapist in an inpatient facility, responsible for the patients' ongoing clinical progress while at the hospital.
I am Catherine Roberts, a Licensed Professional Counselor with 22 years of experience in the mental health field. I understand the unique issues of clients with different personal, ethnic, racial, and cultural backgrounds. I enjoy working with clients who are experiencing self-identity and interpersonal relational issues that affect their job and family dynamics. This is my ideal type of client to work with because there is a lot of self-exploration that the client will need to work on first. Some of the issues that will come up are self-loathing, lack of esteem, shame, and poor self-image.

I knew I wanted to be a counselor since I was 12 years old! I was the go-to for my friend group whenever there was an issue or a problem, and once I realized I could make a career out of supporting and encouraging others, I knew I had found my path! I am always excited to work with a client who is motivated to evolve and change. Plain and simple, you are worthy and lovable just the way you are, even before you make one change.

Many events in life that bring us joy also come with stress, uncertainty & loss. While struggles experienced from major life transitions can be painful, they provide us with opportunities for growth. Working with clients who are adjusting to a major life change is something I am passionate about as a therapist. Getting married, starting a family, struggling in a relationship, contemplating or going through divorce, changing or leaving a career, becoming empty nesters, these are common transitions that can be hard to deal with and make us question our identity. If you need support dealing with a major life change I'm here to help.

Are you nervous, having panic attacks, shortness of breath, or maybe your heart is racing and you can't explain it; it could potentially be anxiety. Maybe for lack of better coping skills you have increased your use of alcohol or drugs. Maybe your family is telling you you are addicted to or abusing alcohol or drugs, but you don't know what else to do. Some people don't understand what is happening to their body and are fearful of where to go or how to get help.

Career Counseling Therapists

How do I know if I need career counseling?

Determining whether a career counselor is needed involves assessing one's current career and identifying what changes can be made to improve one's overall quality of life. In particular, feelings of loss of motivation, fatigue, anxiety, depression, procrastination, or ongoing levels of high stress can all be indicative of a need for career-related counseling. In addition, individuals changing jobs may want the decision-making support or self-reflection opportunities provided by a career counselor.

Who can benefit from career counseling?

Anyone can benefit from the self-reflection, skill development, and stress management techniques that career counseling can provide. However, individuals who are feeling overwhelmed or burnt out with their current job and individuals considering a major career change may particularly benefit from career counseling to improve their wellbeing. Additionally, individuals who are facing issues in their current job, such as coworker relationship challenges or not meeting performance goals, may benefit from the perspective that a career counselor can provide. College-age or young professionals may also uniquely benefit from career counseling as they make key decisions surrounding education and job training that will impact their career trajectory.

How long does career counseling typically last?

The length of career counseling can vary greatly depending on the needs of the individual and what type of support they are seeking. Career coaching or advising services—which serve clients in a specific, goal-oriented capacity—often last for a shorter duration and are sometimes only a single session or a few sessions in length. In contrast, career counseling as part of a more integrative therapeutic relationship with a counselor may last longer, particularly if the issues faced by the client are longstanding and/or more complex in nature; in such cases, individuals may expect therapy to last multiple months or longer.

How to prepare for career counseling?

Clients can prepare for career counseling sessions by outlining the specific topics they would like to address with the counselor, such as current job challenges or hopes for the future of their career. Compiling one's thoughts on such topics often requires reflection on one's career and future goals, which in itself can be beneficial for session preparation. Clients may also want to put together a list of questions they would like to ask the counselor, particularly if the career counselor they are seeing has particular expertise in a given career area. Conducting research into potential future jobs, training opportunities, or support resources in one's area may also help clients prepare for career counseling by providing them with a background of what resources are available in their area.
