Guiding Clients to More Fulfilling Careers & Happier Lives

Jim's unique experience, training, and gifts mean that he can address both the personal and professional challenges in your life

I offer the unique benefit of helping solve career issues from four different perspectives: As a coach I know the techniques to keep you focused and motivated.  As a leader of business and non-profit organizations I have a wealth of insights on career advancement. As a marketing expert I know how to position and "sell" yourself.  And as a psychotherapist, I can help you uncover obstacles and/or interests that are much more likely to surface through insightful questioning and dialogue than in static personality or career testing.  With multiple perspectives on your problem I am able to develop creative, actionable solutions.

When I need help with creative, out-of-the-box solutions, Jim offers suggestions I would never have thought of, or gives me the tools to come up with them on my own.

I welcome you to my site. Please visit my blog weekly for useful strategies and techniques that will improve your work and relationships and enhance satisfaction with your life in general.

Finally, if you'd like to get a sense for me "in the flesh," please view my interview on the ABC TV program "Let's Talk Live," conducted in early April.  While the questions were somewhat superficial, you will certainly gain a feeling for my personality from this clip.
