Career Counselling and Coaching in Kamloops, British Columbia.

I believe in following your lead in regards to career counselling. If you are unsure of the direction you want to go I will help you find your passion. I believe you can make a career change anytime in your life. I will support your dream and help you make it a reality. Why do a job you don't have a passion for? You are in charge of your future. The time is now to change your direction.

I help clients with addictive behaviours or substance use that is interfering with their ability to achieve a fulfilling career. Through collaborative conversations, clients gain a sense of purpose and direction, overcoming barriers to making meaningful progress in their professional life. Gaining a sense of control over one's life allows for increased confidence and self-esteem. I help clients build the motivation necessary to take steps toward a future filled with passion, thriving, and mental resilliance.

It is one thing to embark on a new career path, and a whole other to find the sweet spot of purpose, contribution, vitality and practical stability that leads to a really fulfilling vocation. The latter requires the courage to allow, shape and stay with a vision and the skills to navigate the inevitable peaks and valleys in confidence that are natural to the process. It is necessary to develop the ability to structure your own time toward your goal, maintaining the stability necessary to take new opportunities and creative risks. I offer coaching for those motivated to move into this place.

Maybe as a child you dreamed about having a great life of abundance and achieve greatness. At that age, you were a winner and you would stand up and defend your dreams against any challenges. Unfortunately, lots of people may lose some of that winning spirit growing up and the champion in you may have slowly dimed. Maybe you do set goals and you do have an idea of what your purpose and direction in life is. This simply is not enough for you to experience the abundance in life that you deserve. You have all the potential to radically make a difference! It is already deep inside of you and waiting to be used. Together, we will work toward using that amazing potential.

Are you feeling lost over where to go in your career? Do you find yourself stuck debating practicality vs. what you really want to do? Is it hard to even connect with what you want to do at all? These dilemmas, as well as the overwhelm that comes with career transition, are the sort of issues I am glad to help you with. Working with me means unpacking your deeper identity, helping you to better understand who you are and what you want from life. From here, we consider the ‘nuts and bolts’ of how to prepare for career transition, including organizing your day and addressing the inner-critic. I look forward to chatting with you about achieving your dream vocation.

I offer return to work and employment support specific to people who have concussion and brain injury. This is a specialty area that my Certified Brain Injury Specialist designation allows me to provide. I also offer return to school support and education support for this group of people. Struggling with brain injury or persistent concussion symptoms can make school and work daunting and my approach to allow you to explore outcomes of brain injury, build resiliency and develop new coping skills, will make it possible.

Career Counselling requires a counsellor who has had a lot of personal life experience in a variety of diverse areas. This is the counsellor that I am. I realize how important it is to find the right career whether you are just starting out, are needing to change careers, or have reached retirement age and need or just want to find something different to do for either financial need or diversion. If you are past the point of talking to a school guidance counsellor about your career choices - educational requirements, how to write a resume, how to write a cover letter, how to survive an interview - or are just wanting some advice and possibly some support, I am available to help you.

I am very flexible and open to supporting individuals and couples in exploring career opportunities. If you feel stuck in your current situation, unsure of what career to choose or wanting to enhance your workplace environment. I will assist the client in reaching occupational goals, which may change over time. Goals are set by the client in collaboration with me

Who benefits from career counselling? You might be a student looking for direction or a person considering a career change. You may also be looking to delve deep and assess your talents, skills, interests, personality or learning style. Learning more about who you are and how you want to spend the next decades of your life are all considerations in career counselling. Assessment tools can be very helpful in making informed career choices and developing a personalized career path but are best utilized along with an experienced counsellor. Psychotherapeutic tools such as EFT and Mindfulness Based approaches can provide depths of understanding one's self.
