It’s not unusual to begin resenting the question “So, what do you do?”
hen you are in the midst of asking yourself the same thing, or more importantly “What do you want to do?” In today’s society, a person has about 12 to 15 jobs in their lifetime. It is also more common than ever for people to jump careers. Figuring out what is the right path for you might seem like an overwhelming task, but entirely possible.
This type of counseling would also be appropriate for someone who is just starting to figure out what they want to do, like a high school graduate or undecided college major.

We can help you take an objective look at yourself and gain insight to what it is you want to do and how to gain your sense of purpose. There are so many emotions that can be involved with this type of decision and change, and so we are ready to support you with the tools that best suit your needs through the process.
