Career Counselling and Coaching in Kelowna, British Columbia.

Life path and career/work struggles can both result from distress in relationships and precipitate distress. Support in addressing these issues can have a signifiacant positive impact on overall relationship functioning. The fact that relationships are one of our primary coping mechanisms multiplies the potential distress when these are present as they impacts the very mechanisms we use to cope.

Maybe as a child you dreamed about having a great life of abundance and achieve greatness. At that age, you were a winner and you would stand up and defend your dreams against any challenges. Unfortunately, lots of people may lose some of that winning spirit growing up and the champion in you may have slowly dimed. Maybe you do set goals and you do have an idea of what your purpose and direction in life is. This simply is not enough for you to experience the abundance in life that you deserve. You have all the potential to radically make a difference! It is already deep inside of you and waiting to be used. Together, we will work toward using that amazing potential.

I adopt a client-centric approach focused on empowering individuals to navigate their professional journey with clarity and confidence. Through personalized assessments, goal-setting, and exploration of individual strengths and values, clients gain a deeper understanding of their career aspirations. I provide guidance on strategic decision-making, skill development, and effective job search strategies to align their career paths with personal goals. By fostering self-awareness and offering practical tools for professional development, clients benefit from a transformative experience that not only enhances their career trajectories but also promotes a sense of fulfillment and purpose.

Are you feeling lost over where to go in your career? Do you find yourself stuck debating practicality vs. what you really want to do? Is it hard to even connect with what you want to do at all? These dilemmas, as well as the overwhelm that comes with career transition, are the sort of issues I am glad to help you with. Working with me means unpacking your deeper identity, helping you to better understand who you are and what you want from life. From here, we consider the ‘nuts and bolts’ of how to prepare for career transition, including organizing your day and addressing the inner-critic. I look forward to chatting with you about achieving your dream vocation.

I can help you recover from burnout, optimize your performance at work, or find a career path that better addresses your life goals. Through specific skills and personality assessment we can work together to create a more fulfilling work-life relationship for you. I believe that values and your job are intrinsically connected and that a good fit between the two is essential for your overall success and well-being.

It's never too late to change your job, and many of us have more than one career path in our lifetime. Life is too short to stay in a career that causes you stress and unhappiness. The first step is a thorough assessment of your personality styles, strengths. and interests to determine which careers are best suited to you. After the second session, clients have a list of possible careers to explore. Professional services, such as resume and interview preparation, can assist the client in securing the job of their dreams.

Choosing a career can feel overwhelming. I believe each of us has unique giftings, abilities, talents & passions that affect how suitable & rewarding our chosen career field will be for us. It is not something anyone else can decide for us. We need to choose that for ourselves. I can offer you the help & support you need so you can do just that! Feel free to contact me so we can embark on the journey to find the best career path for you!

I help clients with addictive behaviours or substance use that is interfering with their ability to achieve a fulfilling career. Through collaborative conversations, clients gain a sense of purpose and direction, overcoming barriers to making meaningful progress in their professional life. Gaining a sense of control over one's life allows for increased confidence and self-esteem. I help clients build the motivation necessary to take steps toward a future filled with passion, thriving, and mental resilliance.

It is one thing to embark on a new career path, and a whole other to find the sweet spot of purpose, contribution, vitality and practical stability that leads to a really fulfilling vocation. The latter requires the courage to allow, shape and stay with a vision and the skills to navigate the inevitable peaks and valleys in confidence that are natural to the process. It is necessary to develop the ability to structure your own time toward your goal, maintaining the stability necessary to take new opportunities and creative risks. I offer coaching for those motivated to move into this place.

Do you feel like a square peg in a round hole? Do you count the hours to the end of the day or the days to the end of the week? The difference between a job and a career is huge and usually depends on how much of your creativity and passion you are able to express in your chosen occupation. Determining your personality type, your strengths and your passions and the steps in decision making can be the first steps to finding an occupation that truly qualifies as a career and not just a job!

Who benefits from career counselling? You might be a student looking for direction or a person considering a career change. You may also be looking to delve deep and assess your talents, skills, interests, personality or learning style. Learning more about who you are and how you want to spend the next decades of your life are all considerations in career counselling. Assessment tools can be very helpful in making informed career choices and developing a personalized career path but are best utilized along with an experienced counsellor. Psychotherapeutic tools such as EFT and Mindfulness Based approaches can provide depths of understanding one's self.

We offer Type B tools and evaluations to evaluate behavior, career aspirations, personality traits, personal preference, and career counselling. We offer standardized tests to evaluate each individual in order to assist you in identifying patterns, beliefs, and the origin of your thoughts and desires as a human. There is often a difference between what we WANT to do and what we are GOOD at performing. We might love the idea of being a teacher, but lack patience. We might love the idea of being an Emergency Room Physician but we dislike chaos and uncertainty. Let us help you determine your career path

Finding the right road can be difficult, especially in these unprecedented times. Together we will figure out what your strengths are, which jobs are best for you, and how to go about achieving your best life. With a wealth of understanding and local connections, I can help you find the best way forward, feel confident in your decision, and start your future today!
