I am an extremely caring person. I use my caring personality to help children when I am a counselor at a local camp over the summers, as well as when I help fellow students in the Math Lab here at Indiana State University. I am also passionate about helping others. I have been fortunate enough to have people in my life whom have helped me through the rough spots in my life. I want to be that person for someone else. I realize that I would not be where I am today without the help these people have given me. I do not want anyone to go through life without someone there to support and encourage them. I am also a great communicator because I know when to speak and when to just listen. This is a skill that I feel has been somewhat lost in my generation.

I became a school counselor simply because I wanted to live a life of meaning and be a force for good in the world. Throughout life, having real and honest conversations that support growth, positive change, and owning responsibility are critical to self-actualization. I want to empower my students to give their best effort in all areas of life, not just their education. I believe that simple encouragement in this type of environment is the key to positive change, and I wanted to dedicate my professional life to reflect that belief. I whole-heartly believe in the holistic approached to a balanced and fulfilling life and being a school counselor is a unique career that fulfills this value.
At Marinette High School the school counselors work extremely hard to help students. My school counselor has even helped me overcome my own barriers and obstacles over the course of 4 years. These situations didn’t involve anything personal, such as emotions. However, there were still obstacles and barriers in other situations that my counselor helped me overcome. These include schedules for each year of school, finding and applying for scholarships, and finally getting into college.

Why are you interested in your chosen field and program? If only I could pinpoint when my passion for counselling fully exhibited itself. Truthfully, I began counselling those around me from as young as I can remember, except I was unaware of what I was doing. I countlessly found myself in a position where friends, family and even strangers felt safe confiding in me, and I felt comfort in knowing that in the midst of what seemed like others' chaos, I could help provide somebody else peace.
Just like a quote from “To Kill a Mockingbird”, “You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view; until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.” I try my best to let people know, that I would never judge them for anything they 've done, and that they can be comfortable telling me their problems and that I will surely help them in any way I can. If I just met the person I put all rumors, or negative things I have heard about them aside and I get to know them myself before listening to anyone else’s opinion of them. I try my best to simply live everyday treating others as I would want to be treated. This has helped me because I have formed many friendships and people don 't hesitate to come to me for help, and I do not hesitate to help them.

Personal Statement for NQT Year I have been lucky enough to have been taught by some truly inspirational teachers and am aware of the effect they have had on my life and the choices I have made subsequently.

I have always enjoyed being around young people and have supplemented my interests in primary teaching with as much work experience as possible. I completed my PGCE Education course and qualified in 2006.

I believe that I am able to help others with certain issues as I have gone through many experiences from being at this school for several years now, and I know how to deal with different problems others may be facing now. Even if I have not gone through the same things others have, I still find it quite easy for me to empathise with other people, which helps me be able to think of different solutions to different problems. From helping others, this would also help me to learn and overcome my own
Welcome to my career advice blog for human services, psychology and counseling majors! Almost 7 years ago, I earned my master 's degree in human services. At the time, I was an almost mid-life career changer who was leaving corporate America after 11 years. Unsatisfied with current job, I wanted to start a career where I could make a difference in people 's lives.
Theoretical assumptions: People used to see career counselling as making a decision in regard to which career path to follow after having one or two meetings with a career counsellor (Krumboltz, Foley & Cotter, 2013). According to Hall (2004) this few has changed over the past two decades and it is clear that career development is not a onetime choice but rather a lifelong process. Savickas (2012) argues that the form of career intervention must change just like the form of work changes to reflect the labor needs of the twenty-first century. Krumboltz, Foley and Cotter (2013) argues that clients must create more satisfying lives for themselves with the help of counsellors.
