Psychologist, PhD, C.Psych.
I offer career advice based on psychological analysis of personality and aptitude. My proprietary Multimodal career counselling system (MCCS) involves three 50-minute interactive work sessions with a psychologist, completion of several questionnaires at home, as well as the counselors work on analysis, scoring, and interpretation. The student and his/her parents are then invited for a feedback session where the results will be presented to them and options will be discussed.
Unlike other career counseling services (e.g. school or employment counselling) which typically use one standard test, the MCCS offers a unique combination of three specialized psychological tests (personality, aptitude, and interests) in conjunction with client-oriented psychological exploration. This system measures students' relative strengths in several aptitude areas, indirectly explores their personal interests and preferences, and assesses personality traits related to satisfaction in different work environments. Based on a thorough analysis of these results, the vocational areas that satisfy these three factors are then selected. In addition, the method offers client-centered guidance based on the identified career options and the current stage of the student in his/her career development.
