Career as Story: Using Life Themes in Counselling

Abstract:

Many counsellors are creating an innovation in their practices by shifting concentration from fostering career development to fostering development through work and relationships. This shift in practice has been prompted by changes in the social organization of work and occupations. To respond to these changes, some counsellors have turned to narrative models and methods because this approach emphasizes life design rather than occupational choice.
