Counseling using approaches to fit your circumstances and personality



As professionals, we typically...

  • work in intense environments

  • are expected to do whatever it takes

  • have a heightened sense of responsibility toward our work and clients

  • adopt a professional persona that is not entirely our own

  • sacrifice our personal lives in small and large ways

 

Appeal
Professionals often have many positive reasons to stay in our roles, such as...  

  • feeling respected
  • enjoying the challenge and responsibility
  • utilizing our talents
  • being well compensated
  • having some fulfilling work relationships

 

Difficulties
After years of commitment, professionals often...

  • have difficulty in our relationships with colleagues, friends, family, lovers
  • feel depressed, anxious, disillusioned, empty, fatigued, or lacking in passion
  • notice a sense of underlying dissatisfaction with life and/or work
  • have a nagging fear of failure
  • realize the goals for achievement have no end
  • have a sense that we have lost a part of ourselves along the way

 

Ineffective Responses
Many seek relief by...

  • filling our lives with constant activities and overwork
  • using and abusing intoxicating substances
  • distracting ourselves with TV, or the internet
  • repeatedly seeking new relationships

...but do not find relief.
