• Career Counseling Intern

  • Jan 2014 - Aug 2014

  As an intern at Career Services I provide counseling to students and alumni who are in need of more intensive services than an academic adviser can provide. I create a space for career exploration, identification of professional and academic skills, deciding which major is the best fit for individual needs, stress management, and resource awareness. The intensity of higher education and the inevitable job search which follows can be overwhelming. Students have access to our counseling services to help process job search related depression, barriers and feelings of failure. Through on-site supervision I am learning how to combine my counseling approach with my workforce experience to assist Texas State students as they cope with the world of work. Show less
