Career Counseling and Coaching in Windsor, California.

Blocks to career can create significant problems with feeling fulfilled in life. This lack of career fulflillment can cause depression, anxiety, feeling out of touch with the self, etc. Sometimes these career blocks occur because the wrong career was chosen or a person feels at a loss as to what a meaningful occupation might be. I work to help people through these blocks using a special focusing technique to help you get in touch with your true feelings. My aim is to get you back in touch with yourself, your passion, your true self so that you can make well informed career and life decisions.

Career Counseling is about change. Whether you are changing a career position, seeking a new field, or a student changing a major, the core of career counseling is preparation and the understanding of your goals and how they affect your life as a whole. In my practice, I do not use assessments or aptitude tests, as I believe the client is the best source of information. Together we will review your education, interests, work history and the reasons to make a change at this time in your life. Additionally, we will evaluate your level of risk taking, relationships and approaches to pursue a new career path. My style is comprehensive and tailored to you to help your reach your career goals.

Work is an enormously important part of our lives. As is often said, we spend more hours of our lives at work than anywhere else. So making that work as good as it can be is vitally important to our health, sanity, and general well-being. Yet that, like so many things, can be easier said than done. I can help you explore your upbringing and education, your personal values, needs, and desires, along with ambitions and fears to help you find and succeed along a well-chosen professional path. This kind of support and guidance is just as important for someone just embarking on a career as it is for someone well along the path. It's never too late to take control of your direction.

A career takes up so much of someone's life. To be in a career that feels like a poor fit is to suffer for much of life. I aim to help patients talk honestly, to find the source of their suffering and glimmers of joy. By talking honestly and exploring your real self, we can find the right path to a fulfilling life and a career that feels like the rightful place for you.

Lacking a sense of direction and purpose? Transitioning careers or feeling stuck and potentially lost with what's next. I can provide support and guidance along the way. We can explore past cycles, strengths, goals, and implement action steps to move you closer to your ideals. Please contact me to inquire about how I can help to determine goodness of fit.

Are you fulfilling your purpose or are you not living into your potential? Do you wake up thinking "I was made for this" when it comes to career or do you struggle to get motivated for what lies ahead. Career satisfaction is highly correlated with life-satisfaction. Careers matter beyond how we generate an income. Learn to unblock where you are being held back. Learn the skills essential to make that next career move. Develop leadership skills to grow your company. Identify places you or your company need to make changes for your health and well-being or that of your employees. When we are happy and feel cared for at work, our productivity increases and so does our life satisfaction.

I have helped many people figure out the next steps in their career and in their lives. You will start by listing all the skills you can think of, and together we will see how many possible career choices can come out of this list. What usually happens is that feelings come up that are getting in your way. We will shine a light on those feelings, putting them in their proper perspective. You deserve to have someone to help you navigate through these often difficult waters. It can be very inspiring to help someone find their career path.

Look for support with a big change or how to be more productive at work? Have you felt like you have been stuck at your current job and you aren't living up to your fullest potential in a job that is occupying most of your waking hours? Then let's talk about what is working and how you can expand that to other parts of your career. In this economy at this point in history, there are more choices than you may feel you have and sometimes we just need the support to get through all of the choices.
