Coach Directory

This is a list of Minnesota career counselors and coaches; each is a current member of the Minnesota Career Development Association. Although MCDA cannot endorse any private practitioners, the Board has agreed to provide this list as a service to the public and to its members.

Note to MCDA Members: Are you a career counselor or coach in private practice and seeking referrals? MCDA often receives inquiries for private practitioners interested in providing one-on-one services. If you would like to have your name added to our referral list, send your name, credentials, contact information, including email address, location, whether you see clients in-person, remote, or both, a list of your coaching service topics, and audiences served to minncareerdevelopment@gmail.com.
