How I can help you support them

P arents regularly ask me :

'How does the ATAR work?'
'Which maths is best?'
'What do I do when my teenager has no idea about the future?'
'Which is the best pathway?'
'How do I get them to study?'
'Which subjects for which course?'
'University or TAFE?'
'How do I motivate them?'
'How do we find out about apprenticeships'
'Which course and where?'
'How can I best support them?'
'Where will the jobs be in the future?'

I remove the stress and mental load for parents and students by:

giving clear answers
outlining possible options
explaining what subjects lead where
demystifying the ATAR
discussing future job prospects based on reliable data
outlining the many ways to get to a desired place
clarifying it is ok not to know what 'career' yet
putting together an achievable plan
setting goals

And allowing you, the parent, to focus on everything else you need to do - knowing that it is all going to be ok!

Having previously worked in:

the corporate sector
semi-government bodies
private companies
engineering and technical services
selection and recruitment
hospitality
research
customer service
education

And as a parent and now in my own business

I have a wealth of experience and knowledge to share with you to make it so much easier for you.

Contact me and see how I can help you or your teenager/young adult plan and design their own individualised career action plan.

Take the guess work out of career planning and let me help you help that wonderful young person become an independent adult.

My Experience in Career Development

'I have been providing careers advice to individuals, students and families for 20 years.

With kindness and compassion I bring all on the career exploration journey.

By helping parents understand the process and by supporting students to make informed decisions, I reduce the stress around all things career-related.

Empowering career explorers take vital steps at critical times, I offer unbiased, quality careers advice that works.

I love providing support to individuals and families and finding a solution to career-related issues.

It doesn't matter where you are on your career journey, it is possible to design your life by putting a plan in place that works for you.

When not providing support to others I love spending time with my family, surfing, running, doing yoga and reading - and learning about the future of work.

I am a Professional member of the Career Development Association of Australia (CDAA) & the Career Education Association of Victoria (CEAV) and a registered Professional Career Development Practitioner with the Career Industry Council of Australia (CICA)

I look forward to talking to you soon and helping you and yours make really good career choices.
