Josh Murray- Hopeful Minds
Psychologist, MA, LLP
Career counseling is a service that helps people begin, change, or advance their careers. It can include one-on-one conversations between a counselor and a career seeker, as well as assessments, activities, and projects designed to help career seekers make the most of their strengths.
A career counselor is similar to a career coach in that the professionals in both roles can help you navigate your career path and understand your career goals. Although these terms are often used interchangeably, professionals may identify themselves as one or the other and describe their services in very specific ways.
You may find that career counselor have degrees in psychology, counseling, or human development, while career coaches may have coaching certifications or education in specific fields that they coach people to enter. Another difference you may come across is in the nature of the career support, with counselors helping you with career exploration and coaches helping you with specific career-related steps.

Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
I believe choosing a career is about choosing what is most meaningful for you. Do you not know what your calling is? Let's discover it. Do you know what it is, but feel it's too hard to get there? Let's explore together. Sure, some of us need to balance our work choices with personal needs, family limitations, and more. But we can find a path that is exciting, satisfying, and in alignment with our heart. Career counseling isn't about taking questionnaires, although they may help illuminate interior responses. Career counseling is about finding your source of YES! and making it reality.

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
I take a coaching approach to career counseling. My belief is that I am the expert on specific career development tools, and YOU are the expert on you. I defer to your expertise on you to help us discover the direction in which we will develop your career portfolio. Note: I didn't say career path. It is a rare thing that our way forward is straight or clear. Coaching offers a space to develop your skills, identify possibilities, and develop flexibility, resilience, and insight to take advantage of the right opportunity at the right time. Together we can explore your values, your strengths, your character, your growth orientation, and your definition of success to create a strategy for career growth.

Dr. Meghan Miller
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Career stress can trigger perfectionism, imposter feelings, or burnout, especially for ambitious women in leadership roles. In therapy, I integrate CBT and values-based interventions to help you reframe self-doubt, clarify your goals, and align your work with your deeper sense of purpose. We may use techniques like cognitive restructuring, stress management strategies, and boundary-setting work so you can approach your career with confidence, resilience, and balance. Whether you’re navigating a transition, striving for leadership, or managing executive stress, therapy provides a roadmap for sustainable success.
