Navigating your career journey can feel overwhelming at times. Whether you’re just starting out, transitioning to a new role, or facing personal challenges that impact your professional life, having the right support can make all the difference. But how do you know whether you need career coaching or career counseling?
The answer lies in understanding your goals and what kind of guidance will help you achieve them.
The Practical Path: Career Coaching in Calgary
As a Certified Work-Life & Career Strategist and an active member of Career Professionals of Canada, I specialize in career coaching that’s grounded in practical, actionable strategies. Career coaching is all about bridging the gap between where you are and where you want to be.
Here’s how I can help as your coach:
Aligning your unique characteristics, ambitions, and skills with realistic career paths using assessments tailored to uncover your strengths and interests.
Offering insights into the Calgary labor market, including employability skills that employers value.
Designing strategic, actionable plans to help you transition into roles that align with your goals.
"Career coaching is ideal for those who are ready to roll up their sleeves and take a proactive approach to their professional growth."
The Reflective Path: Career Counselling in Calgary
Career counseling takes a different approach. It addresses the emotional and psychological barriers that might be holding you back. With my 10 years of full-time experience in the Human Services sector, training in Trauma-Informed Care, Harm Reduction, and Mental Health First Aid, I’m equipped to support clients who feel stuck due to personal challenges.
If you’re grappling with anxiety about career decisions, self-doubt, or emotional barriers, career counseling can help you process those feelings and build the resilience needed to move forward.

One of the things that sets Brilliant Person Career Coaching apart is my ability to blend these two approaches of career coaching and counselling in Calgary. Whether you need help unpacking emotional roadblocks or creating a step-by-step plan to land your ideal job, I meet you where you are.
