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."

Career Assessments

Denver Career Counseling Assessments

 

I offer two career assessments that can be very helpful in clarifying the types of careers and occupations that might be a good fit for you. They are optional, and I do not require that you take them in order to work with me. When you come in for an appointment, we will discuss whether it makes sense for you to take either of these assessments, and you can decide what you would like to do.

 

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator assesses personality type. This is a very popular assessment, and you may have seen examples of its four-letter combinations (like INFP or ESTJ). The Myers-Briggs can help you answer such questions as:

  • What types of work settings might be the most appropriate and fulfilling for me?
  • What types of activities and environments are energizing for me? Which are more draining?
  • What kind of activities and projects am I most likely to enjoy at work?
  • What might be some of the reasons I am having a hard time getting along with my boss or a particular coworker?

Here is a sample Myers-Briggs report.

 

The Strong Interest Inventory asks you questions about your interests and gives you a report showing some occupations that people who share your interests are typically happy in. This is not that "test" you may have taken in high school that said "You should be a farmer, a banker, etc.!" Rather, it might give you some ideas of things you have not previously considered, and it can help guide our conversation regarding your interests and related jobs that might appeal to you.

Here is a sample Strong report.
