I was feeling directionless and unfocussed about my career when a friend suggested career counselling. I had never considered that before but since Anne was highly recommended, I gave it a shot. In the time we worked together, Anne helped me discover that I had transferable skills which I had never considered would be applicable to other career paths. She also gave me amazing tools to build job specific resumes and cover letters. Thanks Anne! ~ Kevin Sean Pook See all testimonials

After 20 years of employment I wanted work that reached my core values and talents. I was trying everything but was stuck. Talking to Anne, I understood the immediate next steps I had to take. Our collaborative sessions allowed me to continue on my journey in a measured and reassuring manner. And having gone through the same existential dilemma, Anne really empathized with me. In the end I found what I was seeking. ~ Abner Lico See all testimonials

Anne was an invaluable support to me during my career exploration and search process. She is a compassionate listener who helped me to get more comfortable with some of the unknowns and ambiguity inherent to my search. She asked good questions, offered pertinent resources and prepared me well for the interviewing process. Anne provided exactly what I needed in this process: a thoughtful and knowledgeable partner to bounce questions and ideas off of. ~ Hilary B.
