Career Counselling and Coaching in Orangeville, Ontario.

I offer a counseling/coaching service that is holistic and dynamic. We address all of your life issues so that there is a balanced approach to ensure you success in achieving your goals, whatever they may be. Based on a 'follow your bliss' model where 'do what you love and you will never have to work a day in your life', requires courage, realism partnered with creativity and a sense of adventure. It is about knowing or finding out what you want and then creating a plan to set things in motion. Let the adventure begin!

According to research, it's common to have multiple careers/jobs within your lifetime. However, changing or transitioning careers can be a difficult process when dealing with guilt of resigning from a meaningful project, coming to terms with anxiety of the new status quo, or being confident in our decisions. Regardless, change is hard, and sometimes a little help or perspective can make all the difference. Reach out for a free consult and see if psychotherapy online is right for you.

There can be a lot of pressure to figure out one’s career or to decide where one fits within a particular field. Oftentimes this is a winding road rather than a straight route. Within therapy, I will support you in identifying and exploring the values, goals, interests, and passions most important to you so that you can make decisions about your career that feel right to you. I will also work with you to process possible obstacles along the way such as (and certainly not limited to) challenging work dynamics, stress and burnout, and difficulties finding a work/life balance. Contact me or book a free consultation if you wish to learn more.

Who benefits from career counselling? You might be a student looking for direction or a person considering a career change. You may also be looking to delve deep and assess your talents, skills, interests, personality or learning style. Learning more about who you are and how you want to spend the next decades of your life are all considerations in career counselling. Assessment tools can be very helpful in making informed career choices and developing a personalized career path but are best utilized along with an experienced counsellor. Psychotherapeutic tools such as EFT and Mindfulness Based approaches can provide depths of understanding one's self.
