Career Counselling and Coaching in Stittsville, Ontario.

Many people living with disabilities including anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, learning/cognitive, behavioural, personality disorders, and substance abuse encounter added challenges in the workplace: do I tell my employer about my disability, how do I cope with my anxiety in the workplace, how do I cope with my disorganization or lack of focus, am I reading this situation correctly, how do I manage my emotional distress at work, and many other questions. I will work with you to reach a deeper understanding of how to manage these concerns at work, develop goals, and enhance communication, assertiveness, problem solving and collaboration skills.

The two most important aspects of a person's life plan are their career path planning and their home life planning. A person who does both of these well is almost always a happy person. Formulating a career path with my clients is a very important part of my practice because I realize how extremelly important it is for their well-being. Generally I suggest in my career counselling with clients that, if a client does what they love to do, they will usually be successful. I urge my career clients to ensure that they are in a positive mood, very present and in touch with their emotions when designing their career path.

I offer what I call Career Exploration. This is for adolescents or adults who are considering career options, education or retraining. I may include career testing for interest, personality or values depending on the client's needs. Usually within two or three sessions we will have defined career options for further exploration. At this point, we make a plan to "interview for information".

I have a special interest in working with women whose career paths have been unusual. If you have gaps in your work or educational history or want to change careers, I can help you identify career possibilities. I can support you in writing a resume or CV that gets you noticed. I can help you identify and access the hidden job market. I can provide interview preparation and debriefing services, and even when you didn't get the job, I can teach you how to follow up with contacts so that new opportunities can become available. Looking for work can be hard on you. I can help you improve your self-esteem, and I offer company and encouragement when the going gets tough.

I have worked with many people during transition periods in their careers, helping them to figure out what type of work they want to do and what they can realistically strive for.

Can this be it? Is this your purpose in life? Prior to working in therapy I worked in human resources for ten years and saw too many people in the wrong place working jobs they hated. There may be a better way. By exploring your values, interest and dreamsee we align you for the type of success you want. Skills are important, but it doesn't take talent to practice. Let's explore the best you we can.
