Career Counselling and Coaching in Unionville, Ontario.

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.

As an educator, therapist, musician, and business owner, I have significant experience with integrating multiple businesses and career pathways to support your personal interests and goals.

Career counselling can help you navigate career decisions, transitions, and challenges with clarity and confidence. In our work together, I provide a supportive, structured space to explore your strengths, values, interests, and goals, as well as the barriers that may be holding you back. My approach blends self-discovery with practical strategy, using evidence-based tools to identify suitable career paths, improve decision-making, and develop skills such as communication, stress management, and workplace relationship building.

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.

The goal is for the client to see what path they truly want to take in their career and clients will benefit in feeling a better sense of balance between professional and personal life.

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.

Do you feel like lack of social confidence, anxiety, and poor social skills are keeping you back at work?

You just need the right information, some support and feedback and the drive to try some new things. The rewards are potentially very large, especially at work. Level up your career and your life!

This may involve collaborating to understand what your intrinsic values are, how you define success and what needs are important for you to fulfill.

In our Career Coaching practice, we have found these 3 methods to be the most powerful when it comes to helping you discover your career roadmap - the right major, right talents or career. 1.

CareerPlanner Personality Test (CPPT) is the "Personality Blueprint" which will highlight your talents, skills, strengths, weaknesses, interests and how they coincide with your career roadmap. 3. Jump Start Coaching Hour (JSCH) is the "Life Coach" who will guide you in the planning and implementing of the "Career Roadmap". All you need to do is make a small investment.
