Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You’ve checked the boxes, followed the plan, and built a life that should feel satisfying—but something still feels off. Whether you're questioning your current career, feeling burned out, or wondering if it’s too late to pivot, you’re not alone. I specialize in helping high-achieving professionals and emerging adults navigate career confusion, misalignment, and the pressure to have it all figured out.
At The Momentum Practice, career counseling isn’t just about résumés and job titles—it’s about reconnecting with yourself and redefining what success actually means to you. Career concerns often run deeper than needing a new job. You may feel stuck, lost in self-doubt, or like you're quietly living out someone else’s story—but change is possible. Together, we’ll explore your values, strengths, fears, and options so you can make choices that feel both purposeful and aligned with who you really are.
We’ll work through the mental spin and emotional weight that often come with career uncertainty, and focus on helping you feel more confident, clear-headed, and grounded in your next step. I support clients through college-to-career transitions, work-life burnout, and brave pivots into entrepreneurship. Career indecision can be exhausting, isolating, and full of internal pressure—but you don’t have to navigate it alone. With over 15 years of experience, I bring insight, humor, and concrete tools to help you build a career that reflects who you are—not just who you’ve been trying to be. If you’re ready to feel less stuck and more certain of your direction, let’s talk. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!

Psychologist, PhD
I love helping young people think about their future, all the possibilities they have, setting goals and planning their steps. I am well versed in career options from college, vocational / technical schools, associates degrees, and military options. Sometimes just discussing your hopes and dreams with someone can be clarifying. I have also been trained in career testing, interest surveys, Strength Finder, etc. I was also an entrepreneur, business owner, Executive and CEO with 150 employees. I have experience in other industries not just my own.

Rizaldy R Ferrer
Psychologist, PHD
I approach therapy from the belief that emotional difficulties such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, grief, and other psychological concerns are best understood not only by their symptoms, but by how we respond to pain, uncertainty, expectations, and change. My work often focuses on helping clients recognize unhelpful patterns, become less governed by comparison or rigid thinking, tolerate discomfort more effectively, and identify small but meaningful shifts that can change the direction of their lives. Rather than viewing people as simply “right or wrong” or “well or unwell,” I try to understand what is happening, how it developed, and what may help someone move forward with greater awareness, flexibility, and intention.

Debra Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Our careers are not static, but ever-changing. Sometimes we find ourselves at a cross-roads and we aren't sure whether or not to make a big career change. Other times we are really happy in our careers but are struggling interpersonally with supervisors or co-workers. We spend so much time at work that if it isn't a healthy environment for us, it can lead to burnout and stress. By learning new strategies and coping skills, you can feel more balanced and fulfilled at work.
