Career challenges often bring stress, self-doubt, and confusion about direction or purpose. In my work, I offer a supportive space where clients can explore their strengths, values, and meaning in relation to work. Using a trauma-informed, Gestalt and somatic approach, we pay attention to practical goals and emotional experiences, including fears, blocks, and inner conflicts. I help clients clarify priorities, build confidence, and recognize patterns that may affect career decisions. Together, we develop realistic steps aligned with their authentic self. Through this process, clients often gain clarity, motivation, and a stronger sense of direction and professional fulfillment.

We spend the majority of our adult lives working. Is this work fulfilling? Does it have meaning beyond simply being a way to make money and sustain our lifestyle? My work as a career counsellor goes again to the root of issues with work. There is a soul level to the work we choose, a vocational element to it ("vocation" meaning a calling from the work—where the work actually chooses you rather than you choosing the work.) Spend the remainder of your life doing something that brings sustenance to your soul as well as food on your table!

Those who have a specific career goal they desire will often face obstacles which may become frustrating and overwhelming. For instance, an individual’s current place in a career or even their career path may be unsatisfying and discouraging and very often this may lead to depression, anxiety and stress. Sometimes, there are difficulties finding a new path and at C. S. Counselling, guidance in any of these areas can provide direction to leading a more fulfilling life by investigating desirable alternatives.

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.
