Career counseling assists people in finding the right career path for them. It includes discovering skills, honing in on specific interests and aptitudes, and researching meaningful ways for people to do the work that suits them best. If someone questions their career or work choices, a career counselor will administer tests, including inventories about personality, skills, and strengths. The therapist will then educate the client about career fields, industries, or companies that have jobs that align. They can then work with the person to develop specific skills for that job, such as effective communication, interpersonal skills, and time management.

Good therapy is one of life’s most rewarding experiences. It’s informative, it's amusing, and now and then it's downright breathtaking—in those moments when the pieces fall into place and suddenly things get clearer, more workable. At the beginning though, it’s usually a tangle. A relationship isn’t right, or your work isn’t what you hoped it would be. Maybe you’re nervous or depressed. Somethi...

When you’re right up close to something it’s hard to see it clearly. Such is often the case with the problems in our lives. We’re too close to our own habits, patterns and histories to see what’s not working. When this is the case you may feel bad and not know why. Or you may know why, but still not know what to do. It can be frustrating and exhausting, but it’s not uncommon. I provide a...
We all have our place in this world and it can be a wonderful fit. Art therapy can motivate you to face challenges, express yourself, and work through unresolved feelings.

We may not be aware of how routines learned...
