Career Counseling and Coaching in Sea Cliff, New York.

My professional experience in career counseling is to offer guidance, inspiration and support in the desire to and process of making change. I am not in the position to oversee your seeking employment, but will address your needs to enrich your working experience and set goals through this transitional stage.

We help clients clarify their values and identify beliefs and behavioral patterns that have interfered with taking the risks necessary to be professionally fulfilled.

You just need the right information, some support and feedback and the drive to try some new things. The rewards are potentially very large, especially at work. Level up your career and your life!

Many times we have to manage the fear and anxiety associated with change, I can help you to not only overcome this fear, but create a plan to meet your goals.

Career Counseling is all about finding the right fit for the person who is looking for their next best job or career path. I actually do mock interviews with you to see why you may be having trouble getting hired. A CEO knows within 3-5 minutes if they intend to hire you. It is a Primal and Immediate reaction. Do you know how I know this? The CEOs tell me what are their deal breakers and what they are looking for. They all see me for something else. They already have a job. Finding or creating a job you like is the goal. My quest is to dig deep for talents you might have never considered before.

Satisfaction with your career is critical. Many people spend the majority of their waking hours at their jobs.

In the work area the need is to have something one does on a regular basis that contributes to feeling productive and like you are contributing to the world. Finding the work you love can be worked on in therapy so that you can get started feeling industrious and showing up fully in your life.

Career clarity tends to be achieved when one's profession is an expression of who they are. When this is not the case work feels too much like a task & too little like an experience with personal meaning. Such situations can feel very draining & distressing, as work is a major part of how we spend our time & relates deeply to our sense of identity. Therefore, helping a person understand who they really are & what they value is crucial to a lasting & satisfying career choice. Indeed, it is also vital to help people remove the barriers that they sometimes place in their own way. This is done though utilizing both insight and the establishment of new patterns that lead to new outcomes.

Your job should not be an anxiety producing event since it consume most of your day. Your job should be rewarding and fulfilling.

As a psychotherapist, I can help you make decisions about your career life. The difference between a career coach and a psychotherapist is that I will help you understand the underlying emotional needs you have and in what ways they are driving your career path in one direction or another. To make a change in career is to acknowledge that there might be conflicting needs for personal stability, adventure, and financial security. Two fundamental questions I will help you answer is "Why do I want to change careers?" and "Why now?"

Finding or changing a career requires understanding your own values, skills and goals, and what the job market is like.

Above all, what will motivate you so you feel that you are using your full potential? A lifetime of both working for others, and running a consulting business for 30 years, means I can help you navigate the important and greatly varied world of work, finding meaning and earning income each day.
