Career counselling is a highly individualized and supportive process through which you and your
counsellor work together to helpyou define your career/life path.
You will work with a counsellor, at your own pace, on the parts of the Career Planning process
appropriate to your needs. Usually clients come for four to six one-hour sessions. Appointments are
arranged at your convenience during morning, daytime, and earlyevening hours. Telephone counselling
appointments are also available.
