Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: My business is based on my belief that, “If you find your Life Work, your life works.” As a career coach, I can help you find your Life Work and begin an exciting new career. I am a PhD psychologist who has worked for more than 10 years with people at all stages of career transition – from those entering the workforce to those moving up to those creating a meaningful retirement. I have helped more than 500 individuals identify their strengths, understand the marketplace, and find the work that most closely matches their skills and values. I’m the right career coach for you if: • You’re looking for a new job. • You want to advance in the organization where you work. • You want to change careers, but don’t yet have a clear direction. • You have a new direction, but aren’t sure how to get there. • You need help applying to colleges or graduate schools. • You are re-entering the workforce after a break to raise a family, serve in the military, recover from a health challenge, or attend to aging parents. • You’re burned out, stressed, and see no way forward. Before having my own coaching business, I worked at Apple Computer, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Ernst & Young, and Stanford Medical School. My training as a psychologist allows me to understand my clients and their needs quickly. My broad work experience gives me a keen understanding of how organizations work and what it takes to be successful today. Finally my business stands out because I consistently get excellent ratings from clients. All of my Thumbtack customers have given me five-star reviews. You can read some reviews from non-Thumbtack clients in the media section.

I met Beth at Sonoma State University where I attended her career development course. I was looking for some guidance on how to advance/ launch a business idea that I had been thinking about in Branding & Web Design. Being a millennial and a brand new mom I was a little worried about wether or not I would receive the value I needed from Beth. Boy, was I wrong! Beth exceeded my expectations in more ways than one. Beth gave me multiple valuable tools to use to launch my business and help me be successful. During our coaching sessions there was NEVER a dull moment and I absolutely loved the humor Beth brought each time we met and was always sad when our time came to an end. One of my favorite things about working with Beth is she always showed me my strengths and what I had to offer other people. Working with her helped build my confidence and see myself for the business woman I always knew I was capable of being.

Hi Jennifer, I've loved working with you these past months. You are a wonderful example of how a new mom can build a thriving business while at the same time take care of a special child. Your web design talents are beautifully displayed in your own web site: www.jlecreations.com. All the best, Beth

I am a mid-career professional seeking to change direction and I couldn’t have ask for a better Career Coach than Dr. Milwid. Dr. Milwid is a skilled guide. She begins by leading you through a self-exploration that helps you understand not only what you’re looking for but also what you have to offer. She then turns tactical and offers extremely helpful and practical guidance for restructuring the primary documents needed for an effective job search: your resume and cover letters. Throughout, Dr. Milwid shares relevant articles and research and brings to bear her decades of experience advising people and her own multi-faceted career. Dr. Milwid is also extremely encouraging and a genuine pleasure to work with. You’ll leave your sessions with Dr. Milwid feeling energized and prepared to embark on a targeted and effective job search. I feel lucky to have worked with her and am confident you’ll feel the same.

A friend recommended that I approach Beth when I was considering a career transition from a senior research role at a Washington, DC-based foreign policy think tank. Beth's assistance has been invaluable. She has helped me frame a strategy to guide my job search that's built around a detailed appraisal of my skills and interests. Beth's experience working in different sectors means she has a lot of fresh insights and contacts to share. Her advice has improved the way I have conducted my job search and expanded my network in the process. Beth is very personable, an excellent listener, and is brimming with good ideas. I appreciate her enthusiasm and always leave our conversations feeling energized.

The best investment I’ve ever made! Dr. Beth coached me through the process of applying to a highly competitive doctoral program in healthcare. With her help, I aced my interviews, got admitted to the program of my choice, and was awarded an excellent financial aid package. My investment in Dr. Beth’s coaching paid off tenfold! Dr. Beth’s WONDERFUL sense of humor made me look forward to spending time with her. The handouts she created are excellent, and I shall hold onto them to use in future job searches. Dr. Beth’s experience in healthcare, high technology, law, and university teaching allows her to serve and understand clients in a wide variety of fields. As a Millennial, I highly recommend Dr. Beth’s career coaching to any Millennial ready to embark on new life endeavors and adventures
