Career counseling is a service that helps people begin, change, or advance their careers. It can include one-on-one conversations between a counselor and a career seeker, as well as assessments, activities, and projects designed to help career seekers make the most of their strengths.
A career counselor is similar to a career coach in that the professionals in both roles can help you navigate your career path and understand your career goals. Although these terms are often used interchangeably, professionals may identify themselves as one or the other and describe their services in very specific ways.
You may find that career counselor have degrees in psychology, counseling, or human development, while career coaches may have coaching certifications or education in specific fields that they coach people to enter. Another difference you may come across is in the nature of the career support, with counselors helping you with career exploration and coaches helping you with specific career-related steps.

Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
Coaching clients to achieve career goals involves creating a structured partnership focused on self-discovery, strategic planning, and accountability. My key techniques include identifying your core strengths, clarifying values, mapping goals, and utilizing frameworks like GROW or OSKAR to create a roadmap for success. I establish a Focused Structure: what the client wants to achieve in the session. I help my clients uncover their "superpowers" and core values through exercises to ensure their career path aligns with who they are.I use Visual Tools: I utilize mind mapping to show how different life areas connect, helping clients identify gaps where progress has stalled. I help them set actionable goals. I help clients set specific, timed, and achievable goals, moving from long-term vision to short-term, actionable steps. I help them set clear deadlines for action items, and use gentle yet firm accountability check-ins to review progress and overcome roadblocks. I encourage clients to celebrate small successes along the way to build momentum, rather than only focusing on the final outcome.
Career coaching has been one of my fortes and my clients are now on the right track to achieve their career/professional goals. I have different packages for my clients.
