Career Counseling and Coaching in Ocklawaha, Florida.

You will give thousands of hours, and immeasurable effort to your career. Shouldn’t you find at least some amount of fulfillment in this large part of your life? If you are going to work so hard just to get started in a career, don't you want to be sure you will enjoy it? Career counseling will help you discover your strengths, weaknesses, and tendencies so you can work to pursue a career you are likely to be happy in. I also offer Professional Coaching if you want to stay in your current field and need help finding ways to reduce stress, maximize your potential, or move up the ladder.

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.

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.

Are you a high-achieving man looking for career guidance? Executive coaching has its place, but I provide something different. I don’t give you advice, give you homework, or try to motivate you. Instead, like an emotional surgeon, I use research-proven EMDR therapy to uncover the emotional barriers and insecurities that hold you back and heal them at their source. If you’re a hard-working man on the verge of greatness, this can be the step necessary for personal and professional breakthrough. If you’re a highly successful man who's already conquered your professional goals, this process can help you recalibrate your priorities, strengthen your relationships, and leave a lasting legacy.

Career counseling is exciting. It helps uncover possibilities and opportunities that you may not have considered. I am certified in the use of the Myers-Briggs Type Inventory; one of the primary tools used in this process. This is an assessment that evaluates your strengths and examines which careers caters to your personality type. Whether you are a high school or college student anticipating your first career, or looking to change careers, career counseling could be 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.

Wondering what to do with your talents for a career choice? We have all been there and at times this process can be confusing and overwhelming. Working with a counselor and being assessed for your strengths in different areas can help you have a better idea of the direction you would like to pursue for your career. Career counseling can serve as a stepping stone to your new journey in life.
