What is career
counseling?
Career
counseling includes assisting clients in increasing self-awareness,
knowledge of the world of work, effective decision making skills,
and basic employment strategies. There are numerous theories,
assessments, and treatment strategies that help counselors achieve
the goals of career counseling. Theoretical principles, assessments,
and treatment strategies each provide a piece of the puzzle that
will help you and your client develop an effective career strategy.
It is important to remember that these tools assist in the
counseling process. They cannot replace you!
