Career counselling as life career integration

Abstract

Individuals’ career experiences always happen in a broad and general life context. In this sense, life is career and vice versa. This reality calls for an inclusive and comprehensive approach in career counselling. Following a literature-based rationale, the present article aims at examining the relevance and magnitude of incorporating personal and social counselling into career counselling. It proposes several considerations for career counsellor preparation and discusses implications for career counselling practice. © 2001 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
