Career Coaching
Whether you’re an executive, mid-career professional, or considering taking the leap toward entrepreneurship, the support and accountability you receive from coaching can be essential to your success.
I serve clients all over the map. Career coaching sessions can take place in person for clients in my geographic area (central Connecticut), or over the phone. All sessions are confidential.
Life Coaching
Coaching is a partnership that will inspire you to achieve maximum results both personally and professionally. We’ll focus on what you want in the future and help you design the specific action steps that will get you there more gracefully.
My coaching practice works in accordance with the International Coaching Federation Code of Ethics.
Coaching Options
Assessments
I’m certified to administer several different assessment tools. I use them in my career coaching sessions to get a broader perspective of your values, skills, and interests, better navigate our sessions, and validate the direction in which you’re headed.
MBTI© (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator)
The MBTI is an indicator: It aims to pinpoint your personality type. It assesses you on the following four scales: Extroversion/Introversion, Sensing/iNtuitive, Thinking/Feeling, and Judging/Perceiving.
MBTI© Career Report (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator)
Based on the MBTI, it determines one of 16 personality types: ISTJ, ISTP, ISFJ, ISFP, INTJ, INTP, INFJ, INFP, ESTJ, ESTP, ESFJ, ESFP, ENTJ, ENTP, ENFJ, and ENFP, and suggests careers for each type.
The Strong Interest Inventory©

Your interests are then compared to those of thousands of individuals who report being happy and successful in their jobs. The result: a personalized report that identifies your optimum career choices.
