Aspects of career counseling typically include:
​
-
Assessment: Participate in self-reflection of your personality, interests, and values.
-
Information: Research how assessment results contribute to viable and fulfilling career options.
-
Marketing: Assist in developing resume, cover letter, and profile targeted to desired career goal

Overall, individuals naturally seek out career counseling during transitional times such as from high school to college, after a first job, when parents become empty nesters, when individuals retire from one career, or when individuals are interested in starting a new career. Career counseling can occur exclusively or as a complement to general mental health counseling. Typically, the career counseling process takes three to six sessions.
