Career Counselling and Coaching in Stittsville, Ontario.

Sometimes in life we are uncertain with the academic direction we want to go in. Sometimes we are looking for what career we would like to be in after graduating or looking for a career change. Career counselling affords the opportunity to explore the association between one’s personality and the best suited academic and/or career choices. It is easy to be uncertain, confused and hesitant about what works both realistically and practically. Career counselling focuses on the individuals’ needs and wants.

Even the thought of building a career can feel overwhelming. There are so many options, so many steps, and it be hard to know where to start.

We will work together to plan and implement the steps towards building your career so that you can feel less overwhelmed and more confident to take action.

How you relate to your career and choice of same is something that we can work with you to understand more deeply. Specific practices we design for you can propel you forward in new and surprising ways.

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.

Career Counselling is very close to my heart because I personally spent a lot of years developing skills to leverage myself forward. I can work with individuals on activities to understand their interests, develop plans on how to engage in volunteering and career development skills. I am also very versed in various college and university programs and application procedures. I will work with you to make a multi-faceted plan so that you are able to move forward based on your interests and values to create a meaningful career and future for you!

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.

Are you feeling stuck and like you want to move forward or make a change in your career path, but aren't sure where to start? By exploring your values and your belief systems, together we can begin to map out a list of options that are likely to bring you joy and fulfillment in your life in the long term. By exploring these options in our sessions through thoughtful and reflective discussion, we can begin to create a shortlist and really hone in on what it is that will provide you with joy, pride, and fulfillment in your work. I will help you to identify your strengths and offer alternative perspectives to help you find your way to a happy and successful career path.

Feeling stuck in a career but paralyzed to make a move? Switching jobs but feeling terrified about all the unknowns? Counselling can help you with these transitions! We will use interventions that help you get to know yourself better. We'll also work together to help you reconnect with your values, intuition, gifts and talents to build confidence and make meaningful changes in your life.
