Change can be overwhelming and frightening, especially with our careers. Focusing on our strengths and passions can help guide us to make the correct career choices.

I am a Neuro-Spicy, Gifted therapist licensed in TX and WA. I love working with weary weirdos and anti-heroes. Whether you're high achieving yet perpetually dissatisfied, experiencing gifted burnout, failure to launch, or feel you've never quite found "your thing," I will compassionately challenge the shit outta you. Yeah, I said it. Let's go! P.S. I also specialize in late-identified neurodivergence (GT, ADHD, ASD). It's possible you're missing an important piece of your puzzle!

Finding a job that suits your needs, your purpose, and your values can be super hard. Especially if you're not sure if you're in the wrong job OR if you're not managing it properly. Once you've identified what you want to do, it is important to set yourself up for success - from the first interview, to every-day work life, through promotion and future career goals. Let's talk about how you can maximize your strengths, manage your day, and succeed at work.

It's time to take the leap, committing yourself to become more fulfilled in your career. I specialize in helping people discover a career that falls in line with their life's purpose. I work with people who feel stuck in their careers, are dealing with career burnout or stress, or are entering the workforce and are unsure of what direction to take. Some of my favorite populations to work with include young adults or parents returning to the workforce after taking time off to raise children.

How we feel about our careers and the healthiness of our work environments have significant relationships to our mental and emotional health. I have successfully worked with many clients on 'imposter syndrome,' boundaries, finding career passions, work-life balance, healing from toxic work environments, job search struggles & successes, and exploring their next career step!

As an anxiety & depression specialist, I see how often these are caused by uncertainty about one's career path. Through coaching and hands-on, validated psychological assessments, I will help you find the career that helps you achieve the ideal trinity: 1. utilizes your strengths, skills, and passions; 2. helps others, from providing a direct service to producing art for others to enjoy; and 3. fulfills you, both emotionally (which prevents burnout!) & financially.

Support around personal and professional growth; clarifying career goals and implementing steps toward building a fulfilling career and meaningful work-life balance.

I combine focused study of workplace issues with experience from a lifetime of corporate work. I have a passion for helping people navigate career transitions from starting out, to starting again, to retirement's second act. We might explore what changes feel right, even if they feel scary, or how to believe in yourself and find meaning and balance between work and life.

The career counseling I offer is a bit different than helping you determine your life's calling, next career move, or navigating a job search. While I'm qualified in those areas, I specializing in helping others work through how anxiety, self-esteem, confidence, burnout, and people-pleasing are impacting their career performance. I enjoy helping others feel more secure and in control of their job and professional identity by tackling these issues within the specific context of their career.

Very often people feel stuck in their work OR feel like their career has not even started. Being in a job that is a poor fit can be frustrating & even lead to depression or anxiety. This can go on to impact our personal life & relationships. Further, the rapid advancement in technology is creating new opportunities, but can seem overwhelming to know where to start. Lets put our heads together to see what is possible for you.

When facing changes, one of the questions we often confront is who am I and what do I want to do with this short life?

How do you decide on what to do as a career? Especially when you are freshly out of school without much experience but rather some internship or volunteer experience? Should we follow the path of our parents? Should we settle on getting decent pay or have enough freedom at work? Should we take our job seriously enough, pour our 100% energy into it, and get burnout? Or perhaps you just got laid off and felt stuck in a position with no future? We can start structured sessions to explore.
