Want career advice from a therapist who’s switched careers, been there, and done that?
I’m a counselor who has also been in the trenches where you are: clocking in nearly a decade in business operations at companies like Uber and Gartner, then a pivot to therapy, because I get what it’s like to be ambitious, frustrated, and wondering if there’s something else you should be doing.
Whether you’re feeling stuck, lost, or ready to make a plan to level up professionally, we’ll work together to clear a path forward in your career. Let’s get you to a place where work actually feels right
Living for the weekend really isn’t living
Forget your parents’ belief that work is only meant to pay the bills or you’re lucky to just have a paycheck at your age. Your career in your 20s and 30s can (and should) often make you feel purposeful and proud.
Do any of these resonate?
Want to leave your job but don’t have an idea of what to do instead?
Discouraged because you feel like you’re not learning anything from work and don’t have support
Exhausted and defeated by your active job search after sending 100s of applications with few replies.
Major imposter syndrome at your job or while applying for jobs.
A desire to grow in your current company, either into a manager or the next level up , but the path to accomplishing this is unclear.
Indecision when it comes to what path you want to take or how to go after it.
If they do, that’s okay. Most of us have been there and experience multiple stalls and setbacks in our careers.
But don’t worry; you’re in the right place to make a change (even if it’s a mindset to start) and build a career you love. Yes, it’s within reach and I’ll help you get there

How career counseling can help you
Wherever you’re at in your career, you don’t have to stay stuck. I’m here to help you break through that wall or ceiling and get to the place you actually want to be. Here’s what I predict you’ll walk away with after counseling:
Clearer sense of your professional identity: My primary focus is on helping you truly understand yourself, including your strengths and what makes you unique, so that you can discover a career that's a good match.
Networking that lands interviews: Learn how to get referrals that get your applications noticed by recruiters.
Results from your job search: Show hiring managers exactly why you’re the best person for the job and nail the interview. Practice job offer negotiations so you a secure compensation package that feels great to you.
More satisfaction in your current role: Find ways to make your role work for you instead of just grinding it out for the next paycheck.
You deserve more than just getting by. Let’s figure out how make the most out of your work life.

Hi I’m Ben, a business operations manager turned therapist
Chances are I used to frequently (and sometimes still do) feel confused, down and anxious like you do now. Prior to counseling, I worked full-time in operations for nearly 10 years at companies like Uber and Gartner. During this time I was often exhausted, disconnected, and anxiously wondering if I’d ever find work that actually mattered to me. It took some proverbial soul-searching, but I finally figured out one of my core gifts is to find gifts in others.
So I switched gears, scaled back from full-time to contracting work in operations, went to school for counseling and put blind faith in the universe that things would work out, even if I didn’t know when or how.
Now, as a licensed mental health professional, I work with 20 and 30 year old men like you to help you uncover what you really want, shift your mindset, and set intentional goals to create a life you actually look forward to. If there’s even the smallest part of you whispering “Enough - I’m ready to change” I’ve got the tools, structure, and support to help you make it happen. Let’s take a shot at building a life you’re genuinely excited about.
