Career Transition Adventures: From Engineer to Counsellor in Private Practice

12/5/2015

0 Comments

 
Like many of our career counselling clients, our associate Rhea Plosker is creating a unique life and career transition for herself. Six years ago, she returned to University to start a Master of Counselling degree part-time while still working in her first career as an Engineer and project consultant in health care and not-for-profit organizations. 

Rhea joined William Cooke and Associates in January 2013 as a post-graduate intern, and became an associate with the practice in January 2014. 

Rhea has been blogging about her Adventures in Private Practice for the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association. Her story makes interesting reading for clients wishing to learn about another's career transition and for counsellors and counselling students considering a career in private practice.

Rhea led a seminar titled "Many Happy Returns: Returning to Work After a Mental Leave" at the annual BRIEF Symposium held by the Center for Brief Coaching at the University of Toronto. 

At William Cooke & Associates, we see many clients experiencing workplace challenges. An ill-fitting workplace might bring anxiety or depression to our lives, or other life events might bring the need for changes at work. We work with our clients providing counselling and psychotherapy services as well as career counselling and coaching support for workplace concerns.

Rhea Plosker brings a unique perspective to our practice around workplace concerns, as she started her counselling and psychotherapy career after more than two decades as a corporate technology executive and independent consultant.
