About Career Counseling

Choosing or having a career is an important milestone for some people. It aligns with their values and goals they set when they were growing up. For others, there may be no motivation or hard circumstances. Whatever the situation, I can help you process your thoughts and ideas about a career – for choosing it to landing it!

Career counselors work with individuals at various stages in their careers. For example, students in college can be guided in choosing a major or determining what jobs they are qualified for with their degrees. People who have already entered the workforce can also be supported. Career counselors develop plans to improve their client’s current career and provide advice about entering a new profession.

TOOLS UTILIZED INCLUDE:

  • Aptitude and achievement assessments to evaluate your interests, skills, and abilities
  • Evaluating your background, education, and training, to help develop realistic goals
  • Guiding you through making decisions about careers, such as choosing a new profession and the type of degree to pursue
  • Helping you learn job search skills, such as interviewing and networking (both socially and digitally)
  • Assisting you in locating and applying for jobs, by teaching strategies to find openings and how to write a resume
  • Helping select and applying for educational programs, to obtain the necessary degrees, credentials, and skills
