Our careers can often define us, give us purpose, sustenance and direction. When a career ends for any number of reasons, it can leave people feeling lost, alone and stuck. My work with you begins with understanding who you are and how you got where you are. Together, we will talk about what makes you happy and work on a plan to help get you there.

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.

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.

One of my areas of focus is work life stress and trauma. I work with many clients who are experiencing everything from low level stress to PTSD as a result. I partner with my clients to help them understand their current work dynamic. They are often able to then decide if they would like to change the way in which they are currently working and relating in the workplace or if it's necessary to make a career move or change. I also help clients who are looking for personal and professional growth and can help them identify both areas of strength to build upon as well as self limiting beliefs we can work to eradicate. I have found my analysis client’s Myers-Briggs type to be very helpful.
