Karen Shapiro Life and Career Coach - 480 x 480.jpg

I’m Karen Shapiro and I’ve devoted my life to helping people better understand themselves. A lawyer by training, I have since found purpose in using my keen analytical skills to help my clients set goals and reach them. Having made a significant career transition of my own, I am particularly aware of issues faced by others who are considering making a change.

I consider my job to be creating a safe space for clients to discover more about the person they most want to be and to help them make meaningful progress in whatever direction they want to go. My style of coaching is gentle and warm, yet direct. I value family, friends, and personal growth. I’m also actively involved in my community. Helping people learn and move forward is my passion.  I consider it part of my life work to read and learn about paths toward self-improvement.

When I’m not supporting clients, you’ll find me practicing French or enjoying a long walk. I’m also a mother of two young adults and a dog lover.

I’m honored to stand by my clients’ side and support them to grow, learn, and achieve their goals and dreams.
