Career Counseling and Coaching—Therapists and Counselors in Houston, TX

Making career choices used to be a lot simpler than it is today. The “jobs for life” are no longer around either. That means people can expect to change their position within a company and/or their career at least twice during their lifetime. Just the job search itself can prove upsetting and harmful to a person’s mental state of mind. Career counseling can prove instrumental in times like these. Counselors can help people in the following areas:

  • Avoidance of assuming roles and responsibilities
  • Fear of failure
  • Fear of success (it happens)
  • Identity confusion
  • Lack of motivation
  • Low self-esteem
  • Personal problems clouding the mind
  • Self-doubt (lack of belief in one’s ability)

If it sounds like career counseling is something you can benefit from, reach out to Thriveworks Houston to schedule your first appointment. We’re here to help.

Deciding on a Career Path

There are plenty of obstacles when looking at first time career options or making a career change later on in life. One of the challenges people face is ignorance. Not knowing what you’re doing or where you’re headed can ruin your chances of a successful outcome. Some of the common setbacks include:

  • Exposure and belief in career academic myths
  • Decision making difficulties
  • Inaccurate or irrational beliefs
  • Lack of information about available career services
  • Lack of information about the world of employment and work
  • Lack of self-awareness
  • Pressure from others to take a certain career path
