People go through various transitions in their lives related to career and education.

I do not provide career assessments and I am not a certified career counsellor.

Are you too exhausted when you return home from work to do the hobbies or activities you once did? I will work with you to clarify your professional goals, identify obstacles to finding joy in your work and life, and explore any problematic emotions/behaviours that may be affecting your career.

Being a trained Life Coach, I help clients identify their dreams, bent and natural gifts, so they can build careers which utilize their skill set.

I believe in walking alongside the client in their journey to complete what they set out to do, tackling obstacles as they come – shyness, communication issues, confidence, etc. – so nothing will stop them!

Spending time talking to me about this can give a sense of acceptance and an increased ability to work towards change if so desired.
