Career Counselling and Coaching in Pickering, Ontario.

Changing careers by returning to university education in my forties gives me unique insight into the possibilities.

Though you may not have the intention, or be in the position, to make immediate changes, you can begin to build toward your dreams right away. There are many tools available to help you explore the possibilities and open your eyes and heart to a new you.

Your chosen career path is a reflection of where you want to go and what you want to accomplish in your lifetime. However, due to physical, mental, economic, familial, or emotional limitations, among others, it is possible that you may feel you are unable to work towards your desired career path. Additionally, it is possible that you may be unaware of what your career path might be. In career therapy, we will explore your interests, desires, strengths and challenges, your spirituality, education level and social, political or economical limitations, to discover what work might be meaningful, suitable and fruitful for you. We will then create a plan to work towards your desired career path.
