Natalie A Shafer
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, LPC
Career questions can bring up uncertainty, pressure, and questions of identity and direction. Before becoming a therapist, I spent over 20 years in food and nutrition marketing and advocacy, which strengthened my ability to listen, communicate clearly, and understand diverse perspectives. I work with you to explore what feels meaningful and move toward work that aligns with your values.

Dr. Jason Wang, Inflection Points Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Trained in vocational psychology, I have specific expertise in psychotherapy focused on the psychological dimensions of work and career. I help clients explore their interests, values, and fit; gain insight into career-related emotions, thoughts, and patterns; address burnout and work-life balance; and consider questions of meaning, identity, and fulfillment in work. I also support clients through consequential points in their working lives, including major decisions, career changes and pivots, workplace transitions, career shocks, layoffs and unemployment, and the transition to retirement. Throughout this work, we consider how career concerns connect with your mental health, relationships, values, identity, and life as a whole.

Kelsey Ellis
Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Career concerns often extend beyond choosing the right job or making the next move. They can reflect deeper questions about identity, expectations, burnout, and the pressure to succeed while maintaining balance in other areas of life. Many women I work with are navigating competing demands between professional growth and personal well-being. Therapy offers space to clarify what matters most, understand the patterns influencing your decisions, and move forward in a way that feels more aligned and sustainable.
