Career Counselling and Coaching in Kimberley, British Columbia.

Career counselling serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance and clarity in their professional paths. Through personalized sessions, career counselors help individuals identify their strengths, interests, and values, aligning them with suitable career options. By exploring various aspects of career development, setting achievable goals, and receiving expert advice, individuals can make informed decisions about their careers. Career counselling aids in enhancing job satisfaction, optimizing career transitions, and empowering individuals to pursue fulfilling and meaningful work paths.

My approach to career counselling and planning is taken from the now famous resource Designing Your Life. We apply Design Thinking to reframe obstacles to opportunities in creative ways that may be impossible to imagine now. Then we design plans to give you the inspiration and practical experiences that prove what career decision will bring you the greatest happiness, fulfillment, and reward.

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.

Are you in a job that depletes your energy? Do you enjoy the work but wish you could set some boundaries so you don't work as hard? Do you want a career change but feel stuck? Counselling is a safe space to problem solve without pressure and uncover what is working and what is not, so you can find balance and reduce stress or change course in your career. In counselling we can uncover how old childhood roles and rules govern your work life today and prevent you from having healthy boundaries on the job. Learn more effective communication skills, and simple coping strategies that help you calm down and focus before, during or after work.

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.

I understand that life transitions can bring about a sense of uncertainty, especially when it comes to your career path. In our career counseling sessions, we'll take a holistic approach, exploring your skills, interests, and values to help you make informed decisions. We'll also look at practical aspects like resume building and interview techniques. While change can be daunting, it's also an opportunity for growth and new beginnings. Together, we'll work to not only navigate these transitions but to also turn them into stepping stones for a fulfilling career and a brighter future.
