Career Counseling and Coaching in Hampstead, Maryland.

If you want to move into a different career or are not sure what you want to do, we will work together to help you develop a plan for the future. Have you ever thought about going back to school? The process I use will help you to learn more about yourself as you investigate different career options. I will help you to identify your interests and will show you how to connect those interests to different jobs. You will also look at your personal values and learn how to use your values to help you make a career move.

In American society, our careers help define us. And finding purpose in our careers gives us a sense of worth. As a therapist I see that although a career may pay our expenses it should not define us. It should, however, offer some benefit in either our personal development or fulfillment. I work with my clients to find ways to identify what is useful and discuss where these skills could be applied.

I will ask you to take a test which will show your particular values and character strengths. People are happiest in work that uses their top strengths every day. this gives both satisfaction of purpose and passion/engagement in doing the work.. It is another dimension beyond looking for ways to use the skills you may have.

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.
