Career Counselling and Coaching in Ottawa Vanier, Ontario.

Can this be it? Is this your purpose in life? Prior to working in therapy I worked in human resources for ten years and saw too many people in the wrong place working jobs they hated. There may be a better way. By exploring your values, interest and dreamsee we align you for the type of success you want. Skills are important, but it doesn't take talent to practice. Let's explore the best you we can.

Through our sessions, clients gain clarity on their strengths, values, and aspirations, enabling them to make informed decisions about their professional lives. We explore potential barriers such as self-doubt or fear of change, and develop strategies to overcome them. By fostering self-awareness and confidence, therapy empowers clients to set achievable goals and navigate career transitions with resilience. Whether it's exploring new opportunities, advancing in their current role, or seeking a more satisfying work-life balance, therapy provides invaluable support in achieving career success and personal fulfillment.

There can be a lot of pressure to figure out one’s career or to decide where one fits within a particular field. Oftentimes this is a winding road rather than a straight route. Within therapy, I will support you in identifying and exploring the values, goals, interests, and passions most important to you so that you can make decisions about your career that feel right to you. I will also work with you to process possible obstacles along the way such as (and certainly not limited to) challenging work dynamics, stress and burnout, and difficulties finding a work/life balance. Contact me or book a free consultation if you wish to learn more.

In our career exploration, we may use techniques such as free association, dream analysis, and transference to help you uncover underlying motivations, fears, and desires related to your career. By examining patterns of behaviour, recurring themes, and emotional reactions in the counselling sessions, you can gain insight into why you are drawn to specific professions, struggle with certain job-related challenges, or feel unfulfilled in your current work.

In today’s world, it is normal to feel confused as to what career path to choose, how to change the one you have right now and how to keep moving forward in the direction of your choice, to reach your goals, to reach your potential. I have worked with many individuals, nationally and internationally guiding them towards their educational and professional goals and dreams.

Even the thought of building a career can feel overwhelming. There are so many options, so many steps, and it be hard to know where to start. My approach to career counselling is to create a supportive environment for exploration where we can discover what makes you unique and find careers that fit your strengths, interests and values. We will work together to plan and implement the steps towards building your career so that you can feel less overwhelmed and more confident to take action.
