Katherine's Profile
What our clients say

Testimonials

I came to you seeking to explore career options and pathways and was trying to decide whether I should use my existing skills and knowledge in the same role in a different company or organisation or to change fields altogether and start a new. When I first came to see you, I was highly stressed and you calmed me down in the first Career Counselling session. Over our time together, you willingly shared knowledge with me as well as a laugh or two. I have had great outcomes so far and am interested to learn what is next in our time together.

Career Counselling Testimonial

The Resume you created for me is more in-depth that I expected, it clearly outlines who I am and what I can do. Katherine, Thank You for getting this done so quickly for me.

Resume Writing Services Testimonial

I highly recommend Katherine (Blu Ripples) for all Career Counselling and Consulting products and services.

Katherine’s personal insights into Career Planning, Development and Transition are invaluable; her approach is professional, empathetic and compassionate – I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone.

Career Planning, Development & Transistion

Exceptional!

I feel that I am currently at a cross roads in my life and subsequently on a journey of self discovery; hence, I sought Blu Ripples (Katherine’s) assistance to help me along my way – professionally speaking. I believe the Career Development Report Katherine (Blu Ripples) produced was exceptional and that it exceeded my precise and extremely high expectations; both the report and verbal presentation were very professional and thorough. I truly believe I got the professional help and guidance I needed. I can definitely say without a doubt that I do not know anyone or of anyone who can do what you do to such a detailed, precise and professional standard. I am so much richer for the experience. Thank You!

Career Development Report

Katherine, you are an enlightened soul I can tell! I am so grateful for the help (Career Counselling and Career Development Report Services) you provided my adult son. I had a deep and meaningful telephone conversation with him after one of his sessions with you and because of his time with you the progress I have seen in him is remarkable I have not seen him like this in such a long time.

Together with the specialist referral you provided he is making progress (from my point of view) – thank you.

While I am in the Northern Territory, I hope one day we can meet up in person.
