Career Counseling and Coaching in Rosedale, California.

Wether its loosing interest in your current work or being chronically stressed in a career you love, professional challenges can penetrate to your core identity and sense of worthiness. Through the therapy process, I will guide you through identification of your wants and needs, support you in learning how to avoid burnout and compassion fatigue, help build new habits that sustain motivation, and work with you through the emotional blocks that keep you from taking action on important career decisions. You can find a sense of contentment about your professional life and therapy can get you there. Call or email today to further discuss your career stressors and my therapy approach.

A wise person once told me, "Find something you love to do and find someone to pay you to do it." But the reality is that many people find themselves in careers they don't enjoy or lose the career they did enjoy. Whether you are disatisfied with your career, dealing with work related stress, or wondering what you are going to do next, counseling can provide a framework for you to work through the dissonance in your work life and get on the path of meaningful fulfillment with regards to your work or career, regardless of what stage in your life you are at.

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.

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.

Career Counseling is about change. Whether you are changing a career position you have held for years or choosing a major, the core of career counseling is preparation and understanding your goals and how they affect your life as a whole. In my practice I do not address this topic with assessments or aptitude tests as I believe the client is the best source of information. We will examine your work history and interests and examine reasons to make a change at this time in your life. Together we will evaluate your level of risk taking, strengths, relationships, education, approaches to pursue new career or changes within your current field, stress management, and pursuit of your overall goals

Career exploration is a life long process and it is helpful to have guidance and feedback on this journey. I will work with you to identify what it is you want out of a career and together we can work on a plan to meet your identified goals. This is done by aptitude testing, educational skills testing, and researching what fields most interest you.

Are you fulfilling your purpose or are you not living into your potential? Do you wake up thinking "I was made for this" when it comes to career or do you struggle to get motivated for what lies ahead. Career satisfaction is highly correlated with life-satisfaction. Careers matter beyond how we generate an income. Learn to unblock where you are being held back. Learn the skills essential to make that next career move. Develop leadership skills to grow your company. Identify places you or your company need to make changes for your health and well-being or that of your employees. When we are happy and feel cared for at work, our productivity increases and so does our life satisfaction.
