Spirit offers career counselling and assessments to assist younger and older adults who are struggling to create a beginning career path that brings engagement, fulfillment and a sense of purpose. 

Valuable at any stage in a person’s career experiences, career counselling can be especially helpful for young adults aged 17+ who have tried university or college without success or a sense of direction they had hoped for.  

Follow-up consultation and help with building self-advocacy skills is a part of every career counselling/assessment we conduct.

Career assessment and/or counselling uses information about a client’s work-related skills and abilities (aptitudes) alongside interests, education, physical limitations and cognitive (thinking and reasoning) skills to clarify potential career paths.  A career assessment can:

• Provide a list of suitable jobs that match a client’s aptitude and learning profile

• Provide suggestions about well-matched training or educational programs

• Provide recommendations that may improve school and/or workplace functioning

• Describe why an individual may or may not be able to perform a job
