Business Coaching

Vocational services help you prepare for, find, and maintain work that fits your skills, health, and goals, including self-employment.

Vocational rehabilitation provides more focused support when illness, injury, or disability affects your ability to work. Together, we can identify barriers, explore accommodations, and develop a realistic plan for moving forward.

Vocational or Clinical Counselling?

Vocational counselling focuses on the practical steps involved in employment, career development, and self-employment. Together, we can work on:

  • Career exploration and identifying transferable skills

  • Employment plans and job search strategies

  • Resumes, cover letters, and interview preparation

  • Job development and connecting with employment opportunities

  • Return-to-work plans and workplace accommodations

  • Business coaching, business plans, and starting or growing a private practice

Clinical counselling focuses on your mental health and emotional experiences. Together, we can work on:

  • Anxiety, stress, and burnout

  • Depression, grief, and life changes

  • Confidence, self-worth, and feelings of shame

  • Boundaries and relationship challenges

  • Understanding emotional patterns and developing coping tools

For example: If you’re looking for a new job, vocational counselling can help you identify suitable roles and prepare applications. If fear of failure or anxiety is making it difficult to apply, clinical counselling can help you work through those feelings.

You may benefit from one service or a combination of both. We can discuss what fits your needs before deciding where to start.

What to expect

We’ll start with what you want help with and identify the practical work we can do together.

Depending on your goals, sessions may involve:

  • Exploring career options and researching opportunities

  • Developing an employment or return-to-work plan

  • Reviewing resumes, cover letters, or interview responses

  • Identifying workplace accommodations

  • Working on your business plan, pricing, marketing, or next steps

You’ll leave with clear priorities and actions to work on.
