Client Comments

"Betsy is wonderful. I was feeling stuck in my career, and her knowledge and expertise were the antidote. She helped me broaden my scope and explore new possibilities that I hadn't considered before. More importantly, however, she helped me realize and embrace my inherent traits and skills and encouraged me to choose a career that complements them."

"I really enjoyed Betsy's open dialogue. She was incredible at identifying the true reason for my desire to switch careers. She helped me realize many things about myself as well as help break through many of the barriers that were causing me to be unhappy in my career and in my life. My anxiety about my professional life has dramatically decreased and my overall happiness increased. I highly recommend working with her!"

"I really enjoyed working with Betsy. I originally came to her because I was stuck in corporate sales and was looking for a more gratifying and fulfilling career. She helped me really nail down a career that both fit my skillset and passions. I am not sure I could have mustered up the courage to make the change without her!"

"Betsy has the rare ability to combine psychotherapy with solid, informative and personalized career advice. I found her to be extremely helpful and insightful."

"Betsy is a great listener and I found her insight very valuable in helping me to get out of a rut."

"I quit a 6 figure job in order to pursue a new career. Friends and family are good for support but having an objective third party are key to actually coming to, and pursuing, such a major life decision."
