Take confident steps toward a career you love
Career coaching
Changing careers or looking for a new role can feel both exciting and overwhelming. You might have the skills and ideas, but feel stuck on what to do next, whether you want to keep working in the same field, or how to get past gaps or twists in your CV
That’s where we start. In our sessions, I guide you through both the strategic and emotional sides of career change, so you leave with clarity, practical tools, and the confidence to take meaningful steps forward.
How we work together
Finding Your Path
We explore your skills, what truly energizes you, and your needs. This gives you a clear sense of direction and the next steps that make sense for you.
Getting practical
From job search strategy to creating an impactful CV, persuasive cover letter, and interview prep — we cover it all. Bye-bye scrolling for hours on LinkedIn or the sleepless night before an interview.
Navigating the emotional journey
Career change can stir doubts, fears, and past frustrations. I provide a space to work through moments like bad experiences in a past job or worries about gaps in your CV. Together, we help you reclaim confidence, develop self-trust, and embrace new opportunities without fear.
Why this approach works
Through my experience coaching clients in the creative, digital, and non-linear career spaces, I’ve seen that strategy alone is not enough, and emotional support without practical steps can feel incomplete. My holistic method ensures you leave with both the roadmap and the confidence to take it — all while honoring your pace and personal priorities.

Testimonials
Elise is fantastic, super friendly and professional! She always made me feel like I was in a safe place where I could make mistakes, learn and grow professionally and as a person. I particularly appreciated her relaxed way of running the sessions. I really learnt a lot.
A very formative experience.

Elise coached me during a very difficult moment in my life. I had just left my stable job and was looking to understand what I wanted to do next. I found the coaching sessions with Elise to be incredibly helpful and grounding. Not only did Elise help me to feel more confident and secure in the present, but she enabled me to structure, and feel excited for, my plans for the future. Throughout our work, I was impressed and grateful for Elise’s compassion and thoughtfulness, and her ability to quickly adapt each coaching session for my needs. If you’re reading this and thinking about working with her, I highly recommend doing so!

Es war schöön! Habe mich direkt wohlgefühlt bei Elise durch ihre einfühlsame und humorvolle Art. Durch ihre vielschichtige Denkweise hat sie mich in jeder Situation immer direkt unterstützen können, neue Denkanstöße und Motivation gegeben und gemeinsam Strategien erarbeitet. Habe mich sehr supportet gefühlt <3 Habe nun meinen Dream Job bekommen und kann nicht glücklicher sein, danke für alles! 🙂
