​What My Clients Are Saying:

​"For about a year, I was deeply conflicted about my professional future. I loved my job, but I was years past the conventional retirement age and there were other factors in my personal life that needed attention. I was simultaneously obsessed with my situation and making absolutely no progress in resolving it. That’s where Carol Jackson came in. After I started working with her, I was able to sort through and prioritize my options; weigh my concerns; and restart my thinking process in new and fresh directions. Her counseling was non-directive, clarifying and fun! Most important, because of her, I was able to decide “what next?” and feel at peace with my decision.

 "I recommend her unreservedly to others who are facing similar dilemmas."

~ Public Librarian

​"Working with Carol over the past year has been life-changing. With her help, I was able to navigate and accomplish goals that felt insurmountable. This year, in my early fifties, I was planning a huge transition that involved leaving a job that I loved, giving away all of my belongings, and moving to another state without a job. 

 "Carol helped me set clear and concise value-based goals with each session. Her techniques allow your strengths to be realized and the journey to be appreciated. I will forever be grateful for her encouragement and support that gave me the confidence to create an unbelievable adventure for myself!"

~ Registered Nurse

​"At the time I started working with Carol, I was feeling restless and stuck. I felt like my wheels were spinning, but I didn’t have a clear direction about where I wanted to go. I was also ignoring some things that needed attention.

 "I found the coaching sessions provided me with opportunities to more deeply reflect on things and to be more intentional with my next steps. They helped hold me accountable, and provided me with support and guidance. If I found myself talking to someone who was feeling lost or stuck either personally or professionally, I could recommend Carol as someone they could partner with to help them to help create movement in a direction that feels authentic and aligned with who they are and where they want to go."
