Career difficulties are rarely just about work. How you feel at work - the anxiety, the self-doubt, the exhaustion is deeply connected to your inner world. Career counselling with a psychotherapist means addressing both the practical and the emotional dimensions of your professional life.
Career counselling is where you can have dedicated therapy sessions with career guidance to help and support you with all things related to your career. Our thoughts, feelings and overall well-being seeps into all areas of our relationships including our working life and how we think and feel about our career.
Working with a psychotherapist for career counselling will mean you will be able to explore your feelings, vulnerabilities and discomforts related to your work in a safe, non-judgemental and supportive space. This is so that you can achieve what you want to achieve without experiencing overwhelming emotions on your own. If you experience feelings where you don’t feel good enough, especially when needing to represent yourself and your skills positively on a CV, when completing job applications or verbally during interviews as examples, working with a professional to help and guide you with these steps will feel less daunting than doing it on your own. I am here to help you through this.

Career counselling can cover many things related to how you feel about work. A few examples of what this means and how it can help you are as follows:

The examples above if dealt by yourself can make your working life uncomfortable, and you may feel like what you are doing is meaningless or it’s not helping you to fulfil your purpose. This can affect your work productivity with all aspects of your work, like taking part in meetings to managing projects and people.
Most of us have an inner critical voice that can be damaging to the relationship we build with ourselves. It can stop us from doing and achieving what we really want to do. By working together with me I can help you to build your self-awareness and self-acceptance so that you can achieve your career goals. I have worked with numerous clients during their therapy sessions with their career, from creation of their CV, writing up their job applications and working to create a confidence plan when dealing with difficult colleagues.

Are you a therapist or small business owner looking to grow your practice or pivot careers? My strategic marketing consultancy could help you thrive.
I work full time as a digital marketing professional during weekdays. This means I have current corporate managerial work experiences to refer to and use to help and support you as a career counsellor. I have previously worked within the training and education sector as a teacher and coach where I have supported over 150 individuals. Using my own personal experience of attending interviews, combined with my professional working experiences and psychotherapy, I feel confident I would be able to help and support you with career counselling.
"If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got." Henry Ford.
I offer both weekly and fortnightly therapy sessions, depending on what feels most supportive for your needs. If you only need a few therapy sessions, that's okay too.
Your career doesn’t define your worth, but how you feel within it matters. Care2Counsel supports you to find clarity, courage and alignment in your working life.
