Career Counselling and Coaching in Maple, Ontario.

I am a certified interpreter for Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) personality inventory. If you have done the MBTI Step II inventory propery, then we can use the result to explore what kind of career may best suit your personality preference. Sometimes, when we are working in a career which does not match our personality preference, we may find that it is difficult to handle the work or the working environment. It may create stress, anxiety and has a negative impact on our self esteem and our self confidence.

Whether you are a student who is confused about their future career or a working professional established in your field, feeling uncertain about your career can be overwhelming. By working together we will highlight your strengths, values, and skills to find what path will feel the most satisfying to you. We will work on optimizing your resume, practicing interviewing skills, and improving on communication/boundaries and how they will impact your career.

With the fast pace and challenges of life, you do not have to face them alone. Sometimes you need a helping hand and a friendly ear to talk to. It's my passion to help people. I offer counselling and psychotherapy for individuals, couples and families. I work with clients to improve their resiliency, and uncover their strengths using a client centered approach and different modalities to meet needs .

Being a trained Life Coach, I help clients identify their dreams, bent and natural gifts, so they can build careers which utilize their skill set. From there, I help them set SMART goals – i.e. Simple, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic & Time-focused – broken down into smaller goals, so they never get discouraged, plus they get to witness and celebrate their progress every step of the way. I believe in walking alongside the client in their journey to complete what they set out to do, tackling obstacles as they come – shyness, communication issues, confidence, etc. – so nothing will stop them!

So many people are locked into jobs that leach motivation out of them rather than empowering continued growth and capitalizing on a healthy level of engagement. In my work with careers, I often ask tough questions and expect serious consideration of all the alternatives available to you. We'll work to establish outcomes and put our heads together to map out a plan for you that will make the most of your transferable skills and career objectives. In a sense, my approach is a career focused form of life coaching that aims to keep you moving forward while you work to recognize what you really want for yourself and exactly how you are going to make that happen in the real world.

As a career counselor, my approach is to help clients gain clarity and confidence in their career path by exploring their strengths, values, interests, and goals. I use various assessments and exercises to identify career options that align with their unique needs and desires. By creating a safe and non-judgmental environment, I help clients navigate any barriers or challenges that may be preventing them from achieving their career goals. Ultimately, my goal is to empower clients to make informed decisions, take action towards their goals, and create a fulfilling and rewarding career path. With my guidance, clients can discover and pursue a career that aligns with their values, skills, and a

If you are undecided, anxious or confused about your next educational and/or career direction, working with me can help you clarity and gain knowledge about your unique “career profile “and specific careers and/or educational options that are in line with your personality, interests, skills, abilities, academic achievements, values, and goals (and the situation on the labour market). I am certified to administer and interpret vocational and career testing instruments.

Have you lost your job or need to consider a career change? Are you unsatisfied in your current career but uncertain of where to step next? I take a values-driven and meaning-based approach to assisting clients with important life transitions, including career change, in order to assist in navigating not only what is out there, but what is it you truly want to find. Sometimes we lose sight of where we wanted to go underneath the routine of getting by or doing what we think we should. I believe it is possible to have a job that not only fulfills your needs financially, but lines up with your purpose and potential.

Dr. Strauss offers career counseling through New Leaf Psychology Centre. In order to facilitate decision making, sessions will first assess your current skills, assets and interests. Your level of fulfillment at your current place of work, and obstacles to fulfillment will also be discussed. Potential career changes will be reviewed, with the goal of helping you come to a decision that you are comfortable with.

Career counseling is a guiding light for professional development, offering clarity, direction, and empowerment to an individual.

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.

My approach to helping clients in the area of work and career often relates to interpersonal problems in employment settings, difficulties managing work-life balance, and questions surrounding changing careers. Often clients come in with concerns around how to make changes to their employment situation, and they have various anxieties surrounding the risk that comes with making these life changes. In treatment, I help clients address their anxieties and fears, and we work together to seek solutions.

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!

Are you feeling lost or dissatisfied in your career path? Perhaps everything seems fine, but just isn't quite enough. Maybe what you were once passionate about has now become life-draining. Having previously worked as a lawyer and held many different jobs, I've been there, and I know the courage it takes to make a change. I work with you to uncover your true potential, and help you chart an achievable course to realize your goals. Together, we unpack where you want to be, and get real about who/what is holding you back. Don't settle for a job that leaves you uninspired. Your dreams await you.

Career counselling is an important step to consider when feeling confused, misaligned, or even unsure of a current job or education function. This can apply to current students, recent graduates, and professionals to explore issues affecting their career or education development. You may be unsure of what you can or what you want to do with your degree, viewing it in a linear way. This can limit you by not thinking about the wealth of options that are available to you. If you are experiencing difficulty making a career decision, feeling overwhelmed and confused with your options, or if you are unsure of how your major relates to the work world, career counselling can be very beneficial.

There can be a lot of pressure to figure out one’s career or to decide where one fits within a particular field. Oftentimes this is a winding road rather than a straight route. Within therapy, I will support you in identifying and exploring the values, goals, interests, and passions most important to you so that you can make decisions about your career that feel right to you. I will also work with you to process possible obstacles along the way such as (and certainly not limited to) challenging work dynamics, stress and burnout, and difficulties finding a work/life balance. Contact me or book a free consultation if you wish to learn more.

Career coaching is different for everyone, and I can help.

Starting my second career in life, I had the benefit of a career counselor who guided me to not just a job but a vocation that I now love and enjoy. Through a psychotherapy coaching blend I can understand my clients and their particular desires in life and their limiting beliefs.
