“I wanted to give a huge shout-out to Judith Pérez Caro, PhD, an extremely qualified and skilled coaching professional with whom I interacted recently. I would highly recommend anyone who is seeking quality coaching to look into working with Judith. I have learned so much from her in a very short time! Her incredible knowledge and her decades of career experience make her definitely someone to follow, read, and if you're in the market, HIRE as your coach! For example, recently she steered me to some excellent resources on discrimination in hiring practices and how to identify them -- and also how to not let them deter you from taking up very meaningful space in a professional environment that you fully have the right to work and thrive within! She shared some excellent evidence-based resources with me and my team and we decided to do a deep dive and create a resource on this topic for our clients. Judith operates an active and growing coaching and consulting practice and she's a true thought leader both within academia and beyond.”

“What a difference a coach makes! As a woman of color, the roadmap to achieving greater heights does not often reflect the experiences of being a woman and a minority. Over a year ago, I was on a journey to figure out my next professional move – how to take my nearly twenty years of experience and turn it into something meaningful and exceptional. I reached out to my former colleague Judith Pérez-Caro, PhD to start a coaching relationship. Our time together exceeded my expectations. Judith and I met monthly last year, and I experienced a professional who used incredible listening strategies to understand, power-solve and ride with me through an introspective journey, which was empowering and impactful. She's taken her 25+ years of coaching, advising, mentoring, consulting, and teaching across multiple industries to uplift and support professionals, like me, on their individual journeys.”

“Dr. Perez-Caro’s sessions make me feel so refreshed and clear. I appreciate her ability to help me take on new perspectives that allow me to see and experience opportunities that I may have otherwise not pursued. I am grateful for the space to collaborate and co-create. I appreciate being able to experiment and stretch my creativity. The nature metaphor that we developed recently has been a beautiful source of sustained inspiration.”

“Before I worked with Judith, I had never received coaching before even though I have been in therapy. I felt very comfortable with her approach and appreciated that she was upfront and honest about her scope of practice. We were able to sort out what she could help me with and what my therapist could help me with. Throughout our entire sessions I was always called and comforted by her level of empathy.”

“My session with Judith was really helpful. She provided a comfortable and welcoming space for me. I talked about my concerns with getting a job and what my path was going to look like after I graduated [from] college, and Judith helped me find my priorities and create a plan. I left the session feeling confident in my abilities to pursue post-graduation plans and an improved skill set.”
