I offer problem-solving facilitation sessions with working professionals to work through complex problems that need an interdisciplinary approach that combines counselling and consulting.
This an overview of the five types of problems I help my clients with. These problems typically resonate across my clients’ work and personal lives. In addition to resolving problems, greater self-mastery is also an outcome of my work.
Growing: “I don’t know who I am”
- Limiting beliefs
- Self-sabotaging behaviors
- Loss of confidence
- Imposter syndrome
- Loss of meaning (work, career, life)
Relating: “I can’t deal with people”
- Interpersonal conflicts and disgreements
- Breakdown of work or business relationships
- Social difficulties at work (isolation, alienation, bullying)
- Unconstructive relational behaviours (caretaking, rescuing)
- Communicating a complex or difficult concept
Perceiving: “I can’t see things clearly”
- Understand a complex problem or situation
- Unable to see the big-picture for the details
- Unable to see outside the box
- Understand who I am and my responsibilities in a given situation
- Understand how others see me, and how I want them to see me
Managing: “I am losing control”
- Respond to projects going catastrophically awry
- Manage strong overwhelming emotions
- Deal with losses, failures, untenable situations
- Project or business setbacks and crises
- Unreasonable limiting fear and risk aversion
Activating: “I feel stuck or lost”
- Solution-fixation; difficulty coming up with alternatives
- Excessive worrying and unproductive rumination
- Overwhelmed by options and indistinct paths
- Ethical challenges and decisions at work
- Everything feels like hard work
