Career, Life, and Leadership or Executive Assessment categories represent our quest to experience a meaningful engagement with life and work.
Some seek career counselling as a means to finding meaningful employment.
Some seek life counselling or coaching as a means of determining what has personal significance for them and how the may shape their destiny through informed, values-based decision-making.
Others seek leadership or executive coaching as a means of increasing their self-awareness and authentic leadership.
All three of these assessment categories share the common need to begin a search for who we are. Self-awareness leads to meaningful self-expression in one’s career, life in general, and in leadership. Assessment begins therefore with informed, guided conversation; your counsellor will listen to your career, life, or leadership story and this will guide the assessment process.
Your counsellor may also use one or more reputable assessment inventories* that can provide individual information about your personality, emotional intelligence, career fit, values, etc. Drawing from these resources can enhance the career, life, and leadership decision-making process.
Career, life, or leadership assessment services offered through Cornerstone Counselling Centre will be custom designed in consultation with you beginning in the first session. Billing for services will include the cost of any assessment material required as well as the sessions with the counsellor. Some of these costs may be eligible for reimbursement through your employee benefit plan.
*Available assessment inventories include but are not limited to the following: The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator – Step II; The Strong Campbell Vocational Interest Inventory; The California Personal Preference Test; The Baron Emotional Quotient Inventory; and, The Hall–Tonna Values Inventory

Inspirational Quote:
“…every individual is unique – is a new set of experiences, a new universe: has been granted the ability to bring something new into being is capable of participating in the act of creation itself. It is the expression of this capacity for creative action that makes the tragic conditions of life tolerable, bearable – remarkable, miraculous” (Peterson, Jordan B., 1999, Maps of meaning, Routledge, London & New York).
How do you believe counselling can help?
“Through the art of being present to another person”, Mahoney suggests, “the client/therapist relationship provides a context for vital experiments in living…a transformational crucible” (2003).”
