According to research, it's common to now have multiple careers within your lifetime. However, changing or transitioning careers can be a difficult emotional process when dealing with guilt of resigning from a meaningful project, coming to terms with anxiety of the new status quo, or being confident in our decisions. Regardless, change is hard, and sometimes a little help or perspective can make all the difference. Reach out for a free consult and see if psychotherapy online is right for you.

Navigating our careers can be challenging and confusing. This process can become overwhelming, but with the help of a professional who is both compassionate and impartial, things can become more clear. Together we can explore areas of possibility for your future, and also work towards identifying and overcoming the emotional barriers that might get in the way of you reaching your career goals. Combining coaching techniques, with therapeutic techniques to regulate emotions, we can explore your professional aspirations and set out manageable steps to move towards them.

A lot of life satisfaction correlates to job satisfaction, so staying in a job you hate can create a lot of angst, stress and frustration. In todays job market there are many challenges people face: actually getting an interview, putting a resume together, networking, and performing well in the interview when you do get one. Before you do any of that, you need to figure out what you actually want to do, what you like, what you are good at, and what is a good fit for you. We can assess your strengths and weaknesses for you and help you find a good fit in a new job or career.

Even the thought of building a career can feel overwhelming and it can be difficult to know where to start. While I do not offer support regarding career counselling, at Psychotherapy Collective, our online clinic, we have therapists who are available to offer a free 15-minute consultation to see if they are the right fit for your journey.

Career challenges can stir uncertainty, stress, and self-doubt—especially when your work no longer aligns with who you are.

Are you feeling stuck and like you want to move forward or make a change in your career path, but aren't sure where to start? By exploring your values and your belief systems, together we can begin to map out a list of options that are likely to bring you joy and fulfillment in your life in the long term. By exploring these options in our sessions through thoughtful and reflective discussion, we can begin to create a shortlist and really hone in on what it is that will provide you with joy, pride, and fulfillment in your work. I will help you to identify your strengths and offer alternative perspectives to help you find your way to a happy and successful career path.

Everyone has gifts they were born with. Through various therapeutic modalities including expressive art therapy and mindfulness, I help guide individuals through an inward self exploration of these gifts. I will also help you to clarify and work towards your "best life," that is visioning your ideal work-life, relationship-life, family-life and social-life.
