Carrie Jones, LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LifeVision Counseling, LLC
Today's jobs are demanding and can feel never ending. Metrics, productivity, and the constant increase of expectations can lead you to feel stressed, overwhelmed, and burned out. You might also feel locked into your job, especially after being in the same role or with the same company for a long period of time. Asking about the type of work you do can be one of the first questions people ask when they meet you. So, it makes sense that a career can end up feeling like a major part of your identity and who you are. Job stress and trauma are becoming more common and can feel awful. But, you are bigger than your job. It's time to explore yourself. Whether it includes finding ways to get more enjoyment from your current position and managing stress differently or developing the courage to make a jump to something new, you don't have to figure it out alone.

Julien Moe
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.
