Career Counseling and Coaching in Viola, New York.

Many clients benefit from Vocational or Career Counseling. Often they do not know career goals or stuck in their present job. Chris Colasuonno has an Master in Business Degree and vast experience providing Career Counseling and Vocational Training. As a Life Coach, many skills transfer over to Career Counseling where we analyze your goals and job path. Chris has counseled many individuals in the Putnam and Westchester County area.

Work is an enormously important part of our lives. As is often said, we spend more hours of our lives at work than anywhere else. So making that work as good as it can be is vitally important to our health, sanity, and general well-being. Yet that, like so many things, can be easier said than done. I can help you explore your upbringing and education, your personal values, needs, and desires, along with ambitions and fears to help you find and succeed along a well-chosen professional path. This kind of support and guidance is just as important for someone just embarking on a career as it is for someone well along the path. It's never too late to take control of your direction.

Level Up: Maybe you’ve actually been thinking of taking the next steps in your life. Whether it’s more job fulfillment, thoughts of leveling up in your career, as a parent, teen, young adult, or senior and wondering about the future…this is a great time to begin to work on those goals! Through motivational work and looking at your strengths, and building skills, you might just be surprised where you might be able to go with your perseverance and skills!

I help clients clarify their needs rather than needs sculpted through years of compliance with a partner or spouse. The client who is confused or feels lost is asked to slow down the thinking process to get more in touch with the feeling process. This intergrates emotions and feelings and can further guide my client into a path she can be excited about. Now hope comes alive.

Our chosen professions impact every aspect of our lives. Our qualified career counselors provide counseling to traditional aged students who are unsure about what direction to take in their career goals or who are excited about their new chosen careers. We assist adults who have experienced downsizing, been fired, are laid off, are underemployed, or are reaching retirement. We guide those who are generally unhappy with their career paths. Career dissatisfaction can lead to depression, anxiety, and decreased self-worth. Our experienced counselors assist people to have a more enjoyable, richer, fulfilling work lives. We want to help you find your passion. Attain your goals for both personal and financial satisfaction.

In my approach to career counseling, I focus on the mental health aspects of professional growth, helping clients gain clarity about their goals, strengths, and passions. Rather than offering technical assistance like resume building, I prioritize deeper self-exploration through personalized assessments and in-depth discussions. Together, we explore career options, skill development, and strategies to overcome emotional or mental challenges that may hinder professional success. Clients benefit by gaining confidence, creating actionable plans, and aligning their career paths with their personal values and long-term aspirations.

Learning how to navigate the professional world can be more than daunting. We are given the skills and tools we need to actually complete jobs, but not the training to learn how to navigate the political and ever changing professional world. In counseling with me, you will gain insight into your hopes for the future, as well as the fears that might hold you in what is currently comfortable. From there, we will set practical and achievable goals both for the short and long term, helping you to realize your perfect or dream career!

A career is often a major part of one's life, and finding a disconnect between what you do and your values or interests can be destabilizing and painful. I offer in depth discussions on values, interests, work/life balance goals, and lifestyle goals in order to find a career that aligns. All are unique and important components that need to be considered when determining a job switch or addition. It's a big life change and emotional support in therapy throughout the change is incredibly important as well.

I can help you articulate your professional goals and chart a course to have a happier and healthier worklife (and work-life balance!). A lot of clients come to me for help with job stress. We'll start with a thorough history of your career--what you studied, what you love to do, what energizes you, and where you want to go. We'll articulate options, from books to networking habits to bravely applying. I can help you learn methods to manage up and relate differently in your current role and company too. Reach out anytime.

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.
