Career questions can arise during periods of transition, burnout, or when work begins to feel disconnected from personal meaning and purpose.

You are the only one that knows which career choice will be right for you. However, sometimes it can be hard to tune into your own intuition, especially within the mix of what you want, what you need and what others think. My role in therapy is to help you untangle all these knots and empower you to make a decision that you feel is your own. This may involve collaborating to understand what your intrinsic values are, how you define success and what needs are important for you to fulfill. Call today so we can find a path you can call your own!

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!
