Deciding on a college major and/or career path can be a daunting experience for a young person. Many individuals feel pressure to live up to familial or cultural expectations, or are influenced by the media and friends.
Deciding to change an existing or long term career can be a frightening and overwhelming experience leading to inaction and frustration.
At LaunchPad Career Counselors, Inc. we understand these pressures and frustrations and offer individuals tools to make informed decisions. We have the educational qualifications to administer and interpret psychological instruments designed to garner insight into an individual's psychological constructs as they relate to career development.
Psychological research tells us that knowing your:
- personality type
- interests
- values
1. Are powerful tools that can help you make satisfying decisions about your career and education.
2. Through the counseling process we interpret the results of your psychological assessments and help you focus in on an educational and/or career path that is specific to you.
3. Managing your career is not a one-time decision, but a series of decisions you make over a lifetime. Obtaining information about your personality type, interests and values allows you to make appropriate decisions not only now, but creates a foundation for making appropriate educational and vocational decisions for a lifetime.
4. We are not career coaches – anyone can be a career coach. Rather, we are career counselors with our Masters Degree in Educational Counseling with an Emphasis in Career Development. As such, we have been trained to administer and interpret these psychological instruments to launch you in the right direction.
