A career is more than just a way to pay the bills. Every person spends most of their life in their careers and the career satisfaction/non-satisfaction spills over to the person’s personal life, too. However, there are many variables that can lead to career dissatisfaction. It can be the environment, interpersonal relationships, the skills and talents required for the job, and ultimately the person’s view of the job. A successful career counselling helps the client to take a closer look at these variables and to tackle the issues that lead to an unhealthy career life.

Most people's lives revolve around their work and other important roles they play, such as being a parent, a provider...etc. Therefore, work is a central part of your life and makes up a big part of who you are. When you are dissatisfied with your work, it can negatively affect other parts of your life, such as your health, self-esteem, and overall wellbeing. Because work and the rest of you and your life are so inextricably linked, our work will centre on teasing apart these delicate and complicated threads so that you can begin to explore and understand your work and yourself. In doing so, you can gain clarity and begin to set feasible goals to move towards a more desired outcome.
