What Is Career Counseling? How Can Career Counseling Help Me?

Choosing a career is a major decision, one that is difficult for many people. Deciding what kind of job is the best fit isn’t an easy task, as there are many different considerations to make including one’s skills, interests, and financial needs. Fortunately, career counseling is designed to help people weigh these considerations and ultimately decide on a career path.

In addition to weighing these important considerations with you, a career coach can also offer you valuable information on the skills, education level, and experience you might need to go into a specific line of work. Your Thriveworks Fort Lauderdale career counselor might ask you to think about the following questions:

  • What do I enjoy doing?
  • What am I good at?
  • What are my skills?
  • What brings me joy?
  • What are my values?
  • What jobs will bring me fulfillment?
  • What jobs will meet my financial needs?
  • What jobs are available near me?

Each career counseling session will vary, but the goal of each is to help the individual explore the above questions and find the right career for them. The right career is one that will bring the individual happiness and fulfillment as well as meet their other needs. In some instances, depending on your specific situation, your Thriveworks Fort Lauderdale career counselor will offer advice for improving your current job situation, if you aren’t interested in changing career paths.

I recently switched from "Doctors On Demand" to "Thriveworks." I am seeing both a psychiatrist and a talk therapist. Both have thus far been exceptional. My psychiatrist is thorough in evaluating how medications are effecting me and advising possible alternatives if we need to reconsider a course of action. I appreciate his holistic approach to my treatment, probing how diet and other lifestyle choices may impact my emotional well being. My talk therapist listens carefully to me, shares a central theme that emerges from our session and recommends exercises that help delve deeper into issues that impact my ability to cope and thrive. I amvery happy with their service. Thank you.

Pedro is an excellent clinician who's primary concern is his clients wellbeing. He goes above and beyond to provide the best clinical care for his patients, and creates an individualized treatment plan to help assist with their specific needs. The clinical world is far better off having someone like this practicing in the field.
