We spend the majority of our adult lives working. Is this work fulfilling? Does it have meaning beyond simply being a way to make money and sustain our lifestyle? My work as a career counsellor goes again to the root of issues with work. There is a soul level to the work we choose, a vocational element to it ("vocation" meaning a calling from the work—where the work actually chooses you rather than you choosing the work.) Spend the remainder of your life doing something that brings sustenance to your soul as well as food on your table!

Are you feeling stuck and like you want to move forward or make a change in your career path, but aren't sure where to start?

By exploring these options in our sessions through thoughtful and reflective discussion, we can begin to create a shortlist and really hone in on what it is that will provide you with joy, pride, and fulfillment in your work. I will help you to identify your strengths and offer alternative perspectives to help you find your way to a happy and successful career path.

My approach to career counselling aims to empower individuals to make informed decisions about their careers, maximize their potential, and achieve personal and professional success and satisfaction. It involves exploring and evaluating factors such as interests, skills, values, personality traits, and life circumstances to help clients align their career goals with their personal and professional aspirations. It is a collaborative and client-centered process that considers the individual's unique circumstances, preferences, and goals for their future.

Finding the right career is a very difficult task because we always feel like we our compromising. In therapy we can discuss your values and get to know what you want to live by so that you can feel satisfied with your own work. We might discuss and redefine how you understand the term 'success' and develop a plan that allows you to achieve your goals. Therapy can also improve your interpersonal skills through self reflection. With self-compassion, we can become more resilient to life's obstacles and challenges.

Often, it feels like our lives are defined by our careers. We rely on our careers for income, purpose, and our quality of life.
