Career Counselling and Coaching in Morris, Manitoba.

I heard a local radio station do a terrific piece on finding one's way career-wise; just out of high-schoolers were polled on their certainty of career choice. And those older and wisened were asked: did they follow a straight path to their calling. The answer: a definitive "NO!". We all find our way, in our own time. Many of the internal demands to have it figured out just add a heaping dose of self judgment. Career counselling can help you rediscover your passions, set realistic goals, and let go of unhealthy blocks to following your path.

While most career counselors love to give you capacity based profiles of what your talents and interests are for your best bet career choices, Grey Matters international believes that most people make predictably irrational decisions and then after making them learn way to make them fit into their identities using various types of rationalizations and strategies. We are able to assist folks in career counseling type settings by giving a deeper look at their decision making profile so they can better understand where the core frustration or desire is coming from in the world of work.

Deciding on a career path can be very stressful since much time, energy and money is invested. Through therapy, you will begin to identify strengths and weaknesses, passions, areas of interest and disinterest. I will work with you to discover motivations behind your selected career path to ensure it is the best fit for you. As you consider the benefits and costs of your choice, and identify underlying emotions connected with the decision, you will gain confidence with a more clear direction.

Working with clients collaboratively, I employ methods used to help you identify your strengths, interest and values that match specific careers. Through exploring areas of individual challenges, clients learn about careers to explore and careers to avoid. Participation in career counseling can also assist in exploring new career options or in making a career change.

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.

What excites you? What is your passion? What keeps you from fully living out the life of purpose that you were created to fulfill? My approach is to delve into "who" you are in addition to one's skills and training. We will pursue avenues of interest and less known areas of your life to bring an awareness that empowers and enhances it so that each day holds more than you could have ever imagined.

If you are looking for counselling around job hunting, handling job loss or transitions, wanting to explore beginning a new career or making a significant change, I can help. Changes and transitions are always challenging, and getting support while tapping into your strengths can make a big difference. Together we can work on creating and articulating your vision, goals, and action plan, while identifying obstacles and solutions, both emotional and practical. Do you know your personality type? We can explore best career fit for your unique set of skills and preferences. As a former communications professional, I can also coach you on your resume, cover letter, and interview preparation.
