I feel stuck…is there anyone who can help me?

• Career counseling is available! Meeting with a career counselor at Counseling and Psychological Services is recommended when the career workshops and resources are not adequately addressing your career development needs. Counseling can help you:
  • Identify your interests, values, skills and personality preferences and gain an understanding of how these factors relate to career choice and satisfaction on campus
  • Connect with information resources that can assist you in evaluating career opportunities at UC
  • Recognize and address obstacles to career development (e.g., maintaining confidence while making career decisions, establishing healthy work/life balance, managing change in work role)
• The counseling process often leads to personal insights and growth, as well as goals to help you maximize the resources and opportunities available to you at UC Berkeley. Visit Career Counseling Program for Staff for more information about the career program and how to apply.
