Academic Planning & College Counseling
For: High school students & families
Choosing a college is one of the most consequential decisions a family makes — and one of the largest investments. Journey brings an educator's judgment and a strategist's process to college planning, evaluating schools not just by reputation but by program strength, career outcomes, and how they align with a student's long-term goals. The right fit isn't the most prestigious name. It's the one that creates the greatest opportunity.
What's Included
- College readiness assessment and academic roadmap — starting as early as middle school
- College selection and school list strategy
- Career and major exploration aligned with strengths and interests
- Application timeline and milestone planning
- Personal essay development and editing
- Test prep coordination and score strategy
- Extracurricular and leadership planning
- Summer and experiential learning planning
- Financial aid and scholarship guidance
What You Walk Away With
A well-matched college list, a polished application, and a student who walks into the process with clarity and confidence.
Patty helped my daughter see the application process differently — not as a competition to win, but as a story to tell honestly and well.

Career Direction & Launch
For: College students, graduates & young professionals
Most people don't lack ambition — they lack a clear direction and the materials to pursue it. Journey cuts through the noise with a structured approach to career planning that's grounded in who you actually are.
What's Included
- Career path discovery and exploration
- Resume writing and review (ATS-optimized)
- LinkedIn profile development
- Interview preparation and mock sessions
- Transferable skills assessment and career adaptability planning
- Job search strategy and outreach
- Offer evaluation and negotiation guidance
What You Walk Away With
A focused career direction, materials that open doors, and a strategy you can execute with confidence.
I came in with a degree and no direction. Within three months I had a resume I was proud of and a clear plan. And a job.

- Informational interview preparation and follow-up
- Mentorship matching with field-specific advisors
- Network mapping and relationship-building strategy
- Alumni and professional community engagement
- Networking strategy and relationship guidance
- Alumni engagement and referral navigation
What You Walk Away With
Real conversations with real professionals who can change your trajectory — not a list of contacts, but a door opened by someone who vouches for you.
Patty introduced me to a VP at a firm I never would have reached on my own. That one conversation led to an offer.
