Career Counseling and Coaching in Belle Glade, Florida.

Children usually tell us what they want to do when they grow up and seem very clear about what they want. The good news is that they do not always remember what they said. It is later on when they have reached the age or academic level to decide what they really want it becomes stressful if they do not know what they want. It is not unusually for people to change their career, but finding out what one really wants earlier on can save time, energy, and valuable resources. It is important to sit with a good therapist who will listen, understand what your values are, and guide you in the path that is right for you.

Whether you are applying for college, in college, or in a later adult stage of life, it can be difficult and confusing to determine what career path will help you to find fulfillment and long-term success. We have personal and professional experience with understanding just how tough this can be, and sometimes you even need to try different fields before you find one that is a good fit for you. We will help you explore your passions and skills and utilize therapy techniques tailored to your specific needs to assist you in making progress. Talking out your thoughts and feelings with an objective professional can help you gain insight into what path you would like to take.

I’ve often helped my clients through difficult transitions, including changes in career. I’ve guided those in college to navigate issues of meaning, purpose, and direction, have helped middle-aged men navigate the emotional stress and financial burden of providing for kids and elderly parents, and have coached successful men through transitions around retirement, role changes, and leaving a legacy. At Lion Counseling, our mission is to help you escape the cages that hold you back and become the lion God created you to be.

Choosing an initial career path or making a career change can feel daunting. Maybe you feel immense pressure to get it right from the start and end up feeling completely overwhelmed because of the amount of choices there are. I challenge you to reframe and stop thinking about what happens if you make the wrong choice; think about what your life will look like with the perfect career for you and go from there! Making the right choice starts with understanding your values, skills, and interests. We'll start there and work together through talk therapy and assessments to find the career that fits into your ideal lifestyle.

Let's figure out your purpose in life - not just your job. I love to help people figure out what gets them "in the zone" where they love what they are doing. Sometimes life gets in the way of figuring out your real talents and skills. We may originally take a job for money, and then one day realize that your are not happy. That's when we can figure out what your unique talent and skills are. Life is not meant to be just tolerated: let's figure out what you love to do!

Are you fulfilling your purpose or are you not living into your potential? Do you wake up thinking "I was made for this" when it comes to career or do you struggle to get motivated for what lies ahead. Career satisfaction is highly correlated with life-satisfaction. Careers matter beyond how we generate an income. Learn to unblock where you are being held back. Learn the skills essential to make that next career move. Develop leadership skills to grow your company. Identify places you or your company need to make changes for your health and well-being or that of your employees. When we are happy and feel cared for at work, our productivity increases and so does our life satisfaction.

With over ten years experience in Human Resources, I have a unique niche to understand the complications of the workplace, how to navigate the politics of the workplace, how to get your ideas heard, and how you can be seen and listened to as someone who adds value to your company/agency. I will help you with your resume, do mock job interviewing techniques, and teach you how to promote yourself first.
