Frequently Asked Questions

 
 

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CAREER COUNSELING AND CAREER COACHING?

Generally, career counseling is focused on helping you clarify your interests and values while also assessing your personality and skills to find a career you’ll love. Career coaching is helping you put what you identify into action and more focused on your future goals. As a Certified Career Counselor, I use a blend of both approaches in my work with my clients.

do i need to use ynab?

YNAB (You Need a Budget) is the budgeting tool I teach and recommend that you use. I’ve used it for more than 15 years and haven’t found one that’s better! You’ll use my link to sign up for YNAB which will give you an additional 60 days of free access in addition to the usual 34-day free trial.

HOW MANY SESSIONS WILL I NEED?

It depends! If you just need some help setting up your YNAB budget, it typically takes 2-4 sessions depending on how much you complete outside of our time together. If you’re looking for support in changing your relationship with money and/or improving or changing your career, you can usually expect around 6-10 sessions, although this can vary.

HOW OFTEN DO WE MEET?

I find clients get the best results when we meet either weekly or every two weeks. This keeps the momentum going while giving you enough time in between sessions to complete your next step.

DO YOU GIVE HOMEWORK?

Yes! An important part of the process is taking what we do in session and extending it to other activities or reflections to help you get to your desired goals. You can always ask questions via email as you’re working through your homework in between sessions.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT TO HAPPEN DURING OUR TIME TOGETHER?

You can expect that we’ll start with clarifying your goals for our work together. We’ll use these goals to guide our next steps, whether it’s teaching you how to use YNAB, exploring your values and priorities, or identifying how to move through where you’re currently feeling stuck.

WHO DO YOU WORK WITH?

My clients are motivated individuals and couples who are feeling stuck in either their career or with their money. Many of these people are looking to align their money and careers with their values and priorities. I help my clients gain the skills they need to improve their relationship with money and identify their unique skills and strengths to enhance their satisfaction with their career so that they can create a life they love.

WHAT IS YOUR AVAILABILITY?

I currently see clients during evenings and Saturdays. If it’s not possible for you to meet at this time, I’m happy to chat to see if we can find another time that accommodates both of our schedules.

DO YOU OFFER SUPPORT IN BETWEEN SESSIONS?

Yes! Clients are encouraged to check in or ask quick questions via email in between their sessions.

WHAT IF I NEED TO CANCEL?
