Career counseling, sometimes called career coaching, helps individuals make informed career decisions. This type of counseling is led by one of our Beverly Hills therapists who is trained to provide career development support.
Career counseling works to help you navigate your professional career and offer valuable information, such as required skill sets and/or education, regarding a particular position you may be considering. The following are common focuses of conversation that will help your career counselor best help you:
- Job environment preferences
- Growth potential
- Career goals, short- and long-term
- Personality type
- Desired lifestyle
- Potential earnings of a given career
Career counseling can last for weeks, months, or even years. It all depends on the goals that you’re looking to accomplish and whether you continue to want/need a counselor to help you reach your goals. Either way, our career counselors are here and ready to help you get on the right track.

Why Is Career Counseling Beneficial?
Career counseling can benefit a wide range of people, as choosing a career is one of the most important decisions you will make in life and navigating the road that comes with it can be a challenge. Your career is where you spend the majority of your waking time and can determine a great deal of your happiness. Of course, it is also very important for your income and financial security in life.
When you are unhappy at work, you are usually unhappy in life. Many times we somewhat fall into a job or career, and never really have the chance to examine what would make us most fulfilled and using our skills to the fullest extent. If you are just starting out in the world of work, you have the chance to determine your path from the very beginning.
If you suddenly find yourself unemployed, it may have come as quite a shock. But it may also be a relief, and an opportunity to make a needed change. You may have been feeling stagnated and unfulfilled, without direction and purpose. Losing your job may be just the pause in life that will allow you the time to correct paths and make a purposeful decision for your happiness.
