Beauty, self-awareness, and growth often come from our willingness to be vulnerable and share our stories even when they can be quite difficult to tell. It is in these moments that it would be my honor to listen to your story with the hope that it enables you to experience empathy, acceptance, and understanding.

You're tired of feeling stuck, hurt, confused, and lost. Life has stalled out because of relationship static, family stress, anxiety, career crisis, addiction, lost hope, or past events that keep you running in circles. Each day feels like you're walking on eggshells. Sometimes you feel so cut off from yourself and those you love that you’re not sure who you are anymore, or if it's possible to figure it out. You wonder if things will ever get better and if living life with peace, joy, and renewed energy can really happen.

Others may seek psychotherapy to help themselves grow, deal with anger, or overcome patterns of behaviors or ways of being with others that don't work any more.

Are you feeling stuck as a result of past trauma? Are your relationships, career and/or self-esteem negatively impacted by your trauma history? Trauma isn't always the "big T" trauma we think of when we hear the word "trauma". It can be caused by any ongoing situation that causes distress, fear, and a sense of helplessness. This can happen in your family of origin, a relationship or even a workplace setting. The good news is that the rest of the story is unwritten. You can heal. Processing trauma with a skilled, supportive clinician can help you transform anxiety, fear and shame into connection, wellness and purpose.

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.
