Career Counseling
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.

Career Counseling
Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I have training in various career identity development models which allow for an exploration into certain career paths that may better fit your strengths. That being said, through the pandemic we have had a huge evolution in what a career can look like. We can use this space to see what is and what is not working in your current career path, as well as to broach the existential question around how to live out your values in work/life balance.

Career Counseling
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.

Washington's identity as the center of American political life creates a distinct mental health environment where therapists frequently address political burnout, moral injury, and the psychological toll of careers in government, advocacy, nonprofit work, and public policy. The city has a highly educated and driven professional demographic, and therapists specializing in perfectionism, ambition-related anxiety, and navigating high-stakes careers are consistently in demand. DC's large Black professional community and its diverse immigrant population from Africa, Central America, South Asia, and East Asia make culturally affirming and multilingual care especially important. MedStar Georgetown University Hospital and GW Hospital provide institutional mental health anchors alongside the city's dense and sophisticated independent therapy community.
