Career Counselling and Coaching in Southgate, Ontario.

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?

We often question our career choices and work environment. Toxic people and disorganized work sites, downsizing and re organization can lead to anxiety, depression and burnout. I will help you reflect on your career choice and work environment to explore your strengths and where your professional life lies in the future. Reflecting on your strengths, education, professional aspirations and the job market we can re route your work life to rekindle your motivation. Understanding and learning about how to manage personalities in your work place will also enhance your work experience and open up new opportunities.

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.

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.

In career counselling, I support clients in exploring direction, purpose, and alignment between their values and professional life. This process often includes identifying strengths, interests, and barriers that may be influencing decision-making. Clients are encouraged to reflect on what feels meaningful and sustainable rather than purely external expectations. Many experience increased clarity, confidence in decision-making, and a stronger sense of direction, allowing them to make career choices that feel more intentional and fulfilling.

Career challenges can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re navigating uncertainty, burnout, or questions about direction and purpose. In career counseling, I provide a supportive space to explore your values, strengths, and goals while identifying patterns that may be holding you back. Using a thoughtful, structured approach combined with mindfulness and practical strategies, we work to clarify your path, improve decision-making, and build confidence in your choices. Clients often gain greater clarity, renewed motivation, and a stronger sense of alignment between their work and overall well-being.

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!
