Career Counselling and Coaching in Woodstock, Ontario.

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.

Your chosen career path is a reflection of where you want to go and what you want to accomplish in your lifetime. However, due to physical, mental, economic, familial, or emotional limitations, among others, it is possible that you may feel you are unable to work towards your desired career path. Additionally, it is possible that you may be unaware of what your career path might be. In career therapy, we will explore your interests, desires, strengths and challenges, your spirituality, education level and social, political or economical limitations, to discover what work might be meaningful, suitable and fruitful for you. We will then create a plan to work towards your desired career path.

In today's society, most people spend a significant amount of time in their vocational pursuits. Whether you want to increase your satisfaction in your current role, or you want to explore other potential vocations, or you have a career goal you are struggling to attain, it can be really helpful to talk to someone who can help you create and clarify your goals and break them down into attainable smaller goals and benchmarks. I use a blended approach using principles of both psychotherapy and coaching to support you in creating the life you want while breaking through the barriers that have been keeping you stuck.

I can provide strategies for you to find new or different employment successfully. I'm not only a registered psychotherapist but I'm also a success coach. I have a PhD in leadership and policy and a background in business. I've had many jobs and careers from modelling, personal training, to a Bell operator and a Purolator driver. I've been in retail sales, and sold photocopies, PR, and software. I've been a teacher of primary/junior students, and professor in sales, and a professor in graduate education. I have owned a restaurant, and a tutoring company. I am sure I have missed something! I'm reinventing myself once again looking to be an author! Let me help you find your way!

While most career counselors love to give you capacity based profiles of what your talents and interests are for your best bet career choices, Grey Matters international believes that most people make predictably irrational decisions and then after making them learn way to make them fit into their identities using various types of rationalizations and strategies. We are able to assist folks in career counseling type settings by giving a deeper look at their decision making profile so they can better understand where the core frustration or desire is coming from in the world of work.

Career counselling can be equated with understanding ourselves. Sometimes we are looking for financial success or a new routine. While we work together in therapy we explore your values and what matters to you. My clients shift in their understanding of the importance of career in their life, beginning to understand that what they move into for career has always been about what they feel passion for.
