Career Counseling and Coaching in Charlestown, Maryland.

In some cases, a person can be in a particular career and feel unsatisfied, or as if their potential is not being used to the full extent. It is possible that, with some focus on this issue, one can develop new career goals and feel more hopeful about their future, in terms of employment and career advancement. And, there are times that a person is having an underlying emotional issue, and that is affecting their career success; counseling and/or an evaluation can help to identify the issues.

You might be dealing with a loss of career direction, feeling stuck and unsatisfied in your job situation, or an outright career “crisis” with anxiety provoking changes.

Developing a collaborative alliance with a professional counselor who offers this dual perspective (managing both the internal emotional/cognitive factors and the external work and market place realities) can enhance your ability to make thoughtful, strategic decisions with meaningful progress towards your career goals.
