Career Counseling and Coaching in Mountain Lake Park, Maryland.

You might be dealing with a loss of career direction, feeling stuck and unsatisfied in your job situation, or an outright career “crisis” with anxiety provoking changes. In all of these situations you can benefit from career counseling with a licensed professional counselor who also has over 20 years of human resources management experience in various types of organizations. Developing a collaborative alliance with a professional counselor who offers this dual perspective (managing both the internal emotional/cognitive factors and the external work and market place realities) can enhance your ability to make thoughtful, strategic decisions with meaningful progress towards your career goals.

I understand how overwhelming it can feel to face big career decisions or wonder if you’re on the right path. My approach to career counseling is personal and supportive-I take time to really get to know you, your story, and what matters most in your life. Together, we’ll explore not just your skills and experience, but also your hopes, frustrations, and the unique strengths you might not even realize you have. Whether you’re feeling lost, burnt out, or simply ready for a change, I’ll help you break down your options into clear, manageable steps and encourage you along the way.

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.
