Tamara Clarkson

As the owner of a Houston-based counseling practice, Tamara Clarkson partners with high-achieving individuals as they navigate the challenges that arise in life and career. Her journey as a working professional, partner and mom pushed her to ask herself if she really could have it all and if so, what did “all” look like. Her mission is to help stuck and worn out Houstonians process what they want out of life and create a plan for how to get there.

Before becoming an entrepreneur, Tamara had the honor of working with students at both Rice University and Purdue University for almost a decade as a career counselor. As an associate director at Rice Business’ Career Development Office, she helped students gain the confidence to bring their authentic selves to the job search process, interview room and negotiation table. She is a first-generation college student and volunteers with Career Spring to help first-gen graduates navigate their careers effectively.
