I decided to see Marilyn to get input on my resume format and go over a game plan of my job search. I give Marilyn an A+. She helped me make very solid changes to my resume that makes the format look better. She also gave me interviewing advice. I loved working with Marilyn in the past and I look forward to working with Marilyn in the future.
I feel very fortunate to be able to work with Marilyn! She is very knowledgeable, compassionate, professional, patient, and adaptive to my needs. Decision making around a career has been a very difficult personal process, and working with Marilyn has been like a lifeline!
I decided to see Marilyn after a particularly difficult time in my previous career. I needed a change and was hoping for some insight into a new path and she exceeded all of my expectations. She is a great listener and when she chimes in with her thoughts she is pointed and insightful. You can tell she really enjoys what she does and cares very much about helping people find a satisfying career. I ended up going in a direction I never would have considered had we not met and I am very pleased with the results. 10/10!
Working with Marilyn has not only been extremely helpful for job searching, but has also given me overall confidence outside of the sessions. She takes the time to listen and adapt her teachings to fit my work style.
The amount of knowledge and resources that I received when working with Marilyn are truly invaluable. I obtained a deeper understanding of myself, and gained major insight into my abilities and patterns of learning. With all this newfound information I was able to confidently take the next steps in both my life and in my career decisions. For this I am truly grateful, and would definitely recommend Marilyn to anyone uncertain about their career, or even those who are simply interested in understanding a little more about themselves.
I am a psychotherapist in private practice in the Bucktown area of Chicago. I have only positive things to say about Marilyn, as do my own clients who have worked with her as an adjunct to their own therapy. Marilyn is extremely professional and reliable. She uses targeted assessment tools to gage clients' needs and values in order to help them determine the best path forward. She is holistic in her approach, so she takes into account the big-picture when zeroing in on particular obstacles that each client is wrestling with. She is simultaneously warm and genuine, and totally professional. I always feel very confident in referring my clients (and friends) to Marilyn.

Marilyn is awesome! She provided me with so many tools to look for not only a job I’d be interested or good at but the values that are important to you. Really well rounded experience and I plan to keep playing around with these tools. Plus I was able to get a new job that i’m really looking forward to starting in a few weeks!
