Career Consultation
Perhaps you are not feeling happy at work or are thinking about changing career. You might be experiencing conflict that you are unsure of how to resolve, or there is workplace bullying or exclusion that makes it hard to enjoy what you do. Perhaps there have been a personal change to your circumstances, be it sickness, family changes, or financial stress. Or perhaps you want a change of career because life is not what it was when you first started out in your current role. Or you would like to focus on aligning your personal values to what brings an income – the reasons for consultation are many and personal.
It does not matter if you are in the early stages of work or further along, clarifying your next steps through conversation is a good move.
I have first hand experience starting over many times. I have lived and worked in six countries, having to learn the culture and expectations of the job market quickly. I have also experienced feeling out of place, out of depth, as well as wanting to do it all, while feeling guilty for travelling with work while my children were babies.
While a part of our work will be to put together a strategy of how to achieve your goal, with realistic steps of how to make that happen, we will also spend time getting to understand you better: your personality, strengths and skills, limitations and challenges, interests and drive.
As a registered counsellor I have a particular interest in identifying and working through any barrier that is creating a hinder to you achieving your dreams. These barriers can be practical such as not having time to up skill or further study, or psychological; be it a barrier of anxiety or motivation.
Get in touch when you’re ready, you’re not alone in this.
