"Working with Linda at Careers by Design helped me find direction in making a career change in a personally challenging and confusing time in my life. But most importantly, the coaching process helped me gain peace of mind with the process of leaving my job. I am taking steps toward my future, and laying the foundation based on my values as I look for my next role."

"Linda is one of those rare people who truly leads with her heart. She is filled with compassion and understanding, and is deeply curious about helping people find their passion. I worked with Linda for nearly 8 years when she was Associate Director for Counseling at the Career Services office for the University of Colorado Boulder. Personally, I have never met a career counselor like Linda (in all nineteen years of working in Career Services) who is more vested in assisting clients finding their own wisdom and truth. (I’ve worked with at least 49 career counselors between three offices since college.) Linda is an amazing listener and understands her clients’ needs. In fact, during her time at CU, several alumni wrote me (unprompted) and asked if they could provide references about our counseling services (after seeing her), as it had a major impact on their lives. Also, Linda won the National Career Development Facilitator Champion Award, from the National Career Development Association in 2015! Without reservation, Linda has my highest recommendation possible."

"I am a very quiet person and thinking about a job interview would make me very nervous. My friends would try to help me by giving me advice but everytime I had an interview, I wouldn't know what to answer. The staff at Careers by Design were very patient and kind. They helped me face my fears, have all the correct answers and were excellent at understanding me. I'm so happy I finally got up the nerve to call them and it ended up being a great investment in myself. Thank you for patiently coaching me."

"The strengths assessment was a great start for my coaching sessions, reiterating some things I knew about myself and teaching me new strengths that I didn't realize I possessed, ultimately building my confidence in the process. The Interview preparation, creating a LinkedIn profile, and learning how to target a resume and cover letter, boasted my professionalism and branding. Capped off by the one on one coaching, it really brought it all together leaving me fully prepared to pursue my next career."

"Highly recommend! Linda was an exceptional coach through a difficult time. Being in a transitional phase of my life, I was unsure how to invigorate my job search. She was consistently engaged, patient and encouraging as we explored my skills and interests. She offered wonderful advice throughout the process and recommended some essential next steps. Together we built an incredible strength statement which I can draw from and a solid strategy for my resume/cover letters/interviews that will be invaluable in the coming months. I can't say enough good things about her kind and insightful approach. Thank you!"

"Linda manifests the true essence of contemplative career counselling. Her natural compassion and empathy was essential in my finding direction and cultivating confidence when I faced a difficult Internship search for my final year of graduate school. Her heart-based approach and deep knowledge of mindfulness-based practices helped me gain a clear awareness of my career goals, strengths, and abilities, such that I chose to work with her directly to learn more about her unique practice of career development and leadership. I observed Linda working with a variety of students one-on-one and in groups. She was able to address each student’s fears and doubts, and gently yet firmly help them through their blocks regarding their career choices and futures. I highly recommend Linda as the leading career counsellor in Boulder and the Boulder County area."
