Career Counselling and Coaching in London, Ontario.

Through my Master’s degree I completed a double major in career and personal counseling. This unique training has helped me understand the impacts of personal well-being on career development and work performance and productivity. It also helped me understand how career development and/or employment satisfaction impacts on an individual’s well-being and on how they behave and interact with others. Through counseling, I can help you identify appropriate occupations to pursue and/or address issues that are negatively affecting your work performance, attendance and productivity. Through counselling, you will feel and function better in your professional and personal life.

Using a lifespan approach to work, we will review how our skills, knowledge and attitudes about what we do and why we do it changes, then how to adapt to this change. Whether beginning a career move or transitioning to another area, we will explore a systems view of your job/career growth that leads you to satisfaction in your work environment as well as a trajectory that you find most rewarding through supportive coaching sessions.

I can provide strategies for you to find new or different employment successfully. I'm not only a registered psychotherapist but I'm also a success coach. I have a PhD in leadership and policy and a background in business. I've had many jobs and careers from modelling, personal training, to a Bell operator and a Purolator driver. I've been in retail sales, and sold photocopies, PR, and software. I've been a teacher of primary/junior students, and professor in sales, and a professor in graduate education. I have owned a restaurant, and a tutoring company. I am sure I have missed something! I'm reinventing myself once again looking to be an author! Let me help you find your way!

While most career counselors love to give you capacity based profiles of what your talents and interests are for your best bet career choices, Grey Matters international believes that most people make predictably irrational decisions and then after making them learn way to make them fit into their identities using various types of rationalizations and strategies. We are able to assist folks in career counseling type settings by giving a deeper look at their decision making profile so they can better understand where the core frustration or desire is coming from in the world of work.

Ideally your job, career or occupation is a source of energy, meaning and perspective on life and money. It aids your journey through the shifting realities we now have on the planet. When you are not in that happy situation - having a job that does Not feel (or is indeed Not) benefitting you, everything else is bound to be ‘off kilter’! My experience over forty years of being a therapist is that the technical aspects of a career/job/position may be resolved by going through the typical mechanics of job searching. But what you will gain from speaking to me in person is a fresh perspective. In short, do you and your possible career ‘line up’ and how can we work together to get you there?

I believe that in order to find the right career for you 2 things are essential; to really know yourself and to know what careers are out there. I can help you to uncover what you are passionate about, your strengths and what is important to you. Whether you are in High School, contemplating a second career, or womewhere inbetween, together we can navigate a career path that fits for you.
