Career Counseling

Feeling adrift in your career? Do you long for work that ignites your passion, leverages your unique strengths, and brings a deeper sense of fulfillment? Career counseling, particularly when integrated with psychotherapy, offers a powerful path to achieving not just job satisfaction, but true career success and engagement. Often, struggles in the workplace stem from an incongruence between an individual's innate talents and the demands of their role, or from underlying psychological factors that impede professional growth. Through the insightful process of therapy, individuals can gain profound self-awareness, identify core values, and uncover hidden strengths and interests that are crucial for finding a truly compatible and rewarding career path.

At CrossBridge Clinical Associates, we believe that career success is deeply intertwined with personal well-being. Our approach to career counseling is holistic, meaning we go beyond merely matching résumés to job descriptions. We utilize empirically validated career measures to rigorously assess a person's inherent strengths, skills, interests, and work values. This data-driven approach provides a clear roadmap, identifying career fields and roles where an individual is most likely to thrive, experience genuine engagement, and achieve sustained success. Our expert psychotherapists then work collaboratively with clients to address any psychological barriers, such as anxiety, self-doubt, or communication challenges, that might be holding them back from their full professional potential.

Beyond identifying ideal career matches, our comprehensive career counseling at CrossBridge Clinical Associates also focuses on developing the practical skills essential for professional advancement. We provide targeted coaching on crucial areas such as effective interviewing techniques, confident communication, and impactful public speaking.

We even address aspects of physical presentation, recognizing its role in professional perception. If necessary, we can also integrate neuropsychological testing into our assessment process to gain a deeper understanding of an individual's academic and cognitive performances, identifying any underlying strengths or challenges that could impact learning, problem-solving, or executive functions in a work setting.
