Career Counselling and Coaching in Two Hills, Alberta.

In career counselling, I assist individuals with exploration, change, and development. I help people explore their values, personality characteristics, and strengths. I assist in the transition from school to a career, a change in their current career, or the transition from their career to retirement. I also help people work through career-related struggles and challenges such as stress/burnout, confidence/assertiveness, and work/life balance.
