Jack Szary
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D
I provide career counseling for adults who feel stuck, uncertain, or dissatisfied in their professional lives, including those navigating career transitions, burnout, or high-pressure work environments. Many clients are capable and motivated yet struggle with self-doubt, decision paralysis, or fear of making the “wrong” choice. My approach integrates practical decision-making support with exploration of values, identity, and emotional patterns, helping clients gain clarity, confidence, and direction in their careers.

Dr Jody Eiser
Therapist, Doctorate in Psychology
Career challenges are often not only about what you do, but how you have learned to survive, adapt, and define yourself. Through a trauma-informed lens and a focus on trauma endurance, we explore the deeper patterns influencing your decisions, helping you reconnect with your values, identity, and sense of purpose.

Jazmin Melendez
Pre-Licensed Professional, LMSW
Career decisions can bring up questions about purpose, identity, confidence, and what you want your future to look like. Whether you’re choosing a path, considering a change, or feeling unfulfilled in your current role, I can help you explore your values, strengths, priorities, and goals. Together, we’ll make sense of what matters most to you and work toward decisions that feel both realistic and meaningful.

Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Having run my own company for over 20 years before training as a psychotherapist, I bring a rare dual lens to career counselling: I understand both the internal psychological terrain and the real pressures of running or working within a business. I specialise in supporting professionals who are clearly successful by external measures but privately stuck, whether that’s burnout, a values mismatch, imposter feelings, or difficulty navigating conflict and politics at senior levels. Rather than generic career advice, sessions focus on the beliefs and patterns driving career decisions, so change is grounded and sustainable rather than another short-term fix.
