When counseling it's good for you
|
|
If you are suffering from a sense of
loss of someone dear to you, living
or dead;
If you feel stocked in a personal or
professional situation and you would
like to move on;
If
you are living with tension in your
home environment: with a parent, a
child, a sibling ...

Counseling is distinguished from
other mental health disciplines by both its history and its
emphasis. Other helping professions such as psychiatry and
clinical psychology concentrate primarily on the treatment of
severe emotional disorders. Social work deals basically with the
social and legal aspects of assisting others in need. In
contrast, counseling focuses on development and the prevention
of serious mental health problems through education and
short-term treatment. It emphasizes growth as well as
remediation. Counselors work with persons, groups, families and
systems who are experiencing situational and long-term problems.
Counseling’s emphasis on development, prevention, and treatment
make it attractive to those seeking healthy life-stage
transitions and productive lives (Cole &
Sarnoff, 1980; Romano, 1992).

and
Counselors are? |
|
professionals trained to assist people with personal, family,
educational and career decisions
and problems including stress
management, self-esteem, issues
associated with aging, job and career
concerns, educational decisions,
emotional health, and family, parenting,
and marital or other relationship
problems.
Counselors
work with individuals, families, and
groups to address and treat emotional
crisis and to promote well-being.
Their duties depend on the
individuals they serve and on the
settings in which they work.
A master’s degree is typically required to
be licensed as a counselor. |

Because of my
marketing expertise and as a
councelor I may help you in improving
your behavioral approach, to implement
your strategies, to achieve your
personal and professional objectives. |

Marketing
is about raising awareness or creating
the desire for something - including
you, your services, skills and
experience.
|
|
Counseling can assist you in identifying skills, interests, needs and values that matter to you and develop the skills needed to accomplish your goals. |
|
You will reassess your
ambitions, and major sources of
professional and personal satisfaction.
|
|
Application fields:
|
School
: help students
evaluate their abilities,
interests, talents, and
personality characteristics in
order to develop realistic
academic and career goals.
|
Career:
assist individuals in the
development of a life-career
with focus on the definition of
the worker role and how that
role interacts with other life
roles. |
|
Rehabilitation: help people deal with the personal,
social, and vocational effects of disabilities. They counsel
people with disabilities resulting from birth defects, illness
or disease, accidents, or the stress of daily life.
|
Marriage and family
:
apply principles, methods, and
techniques to individuals,
families, couples, or
organizations in order to
resolve emotional conflicts. In
doing so, they modify people’s
perceptions and behaviors,
enhance communication and
understanding among family

family and individual crises. |

Many people would
like their work to be more personally and professionally gratifying. Many would
like to obtain or advance to positions/occupations that more accurately reflect
their personal and professional needs, the things they value, and the skills
they have or want to develop. When these are part of our work life, we
experience more satisfaction, personal enrichment, and confidence in our work
and ourselves. When they are missing, work may become routine, unchallenging,
and job dissatisfaction occurs. This dissatisfaction may also spill over into
other life areas of the individual.
Unfortunately many people enter occupations or make career
decisions without proper reflection or guidance on these
important issues. And many only realize this once work has
become a source of discontent and/or personal distress.
Interview are made to assist individuals
in obtaining work that is satisfying and which may lead to
greater career mobility. Whether you have worked a
significant period of time in one field or are looking for a
new career, our small group workshops, individual services,
and training programs will help you define and establish
career and personal goals and improve professional
development.
