Aaaiiiiggghhhh.

Okay, I could spend all this post whining about physical condition and mental condition and other stuff, but I actually have a pretty important question, of the somebody-out-there-might-know-this variety.

I need a career counselor.

Further requirements:
- Boston area
- Open-minded enough to handle somebody artsy looking for a livable job for artsy people (i.e. Bennington lit major != lawyer)
- Will not break my bank? No idea what sort of fees I should be expecting, or number of visits...

...really, I know nothing about career counseling in general. I just know that I need it. I am so fucking lost right now, and too depressed to be able to evaluate my own abilities or worth, and so fucking terrified of making spreadsheets for the rest of my life. I'm not particularly capable of handling a 40-hour-a-week office job. I'm just more capable than all the other people I intend to live with, so I'm stuck with it. Might as well make it one that doesn't drive me insane.

(I have insomnia when I've never had insomnia before. This is scaring me.)

(Also, work sucks and I get bored and very, very lonely. Feel free to spam my journal or email me if there's anything you might wish to say to me. Though I won't be replying to comments at work, as I don't actually LJ there.)

I can recommend a great career counselor who was a professor of mine. Her name is Sue Motulsky. Unfortunately what I cannot do is give you a phone number for her counseling practice as I only had contact with her through Lesley University. She's definitely somewhere in eastern ma but when I tried to hunt down her info I didn't get much useful. I'll poke around a bit more and see what I can find.

Oh, excellent, thank you!

Does she have a specialty? If career counselors have specialties?
