Career Guidance Therapists in Lugano
I believe therapy is indispensable for supporting healthy growth and change. It is a place where you can safely explore: what and what not is supporting you in your life, unhealthy behaviours and patterns, and begin to introduce positive changes. I believe it is a journey of self discovery, possibility and a commitment to oneself. Together we will explore the unconscious processes that block you from who you are meant to become. Hello, I'm Laura and a qualified Counsellor and Psychotherapist in Transactional Analysis (CTA), working with individuals and couples.

I work with adults who notice recurring patterns in relationships, self-doubt or emotional overwhelm that do not seem to shift. You may understand why these patterns developed, yet still feel stuck in them. Perhaps you feel pulled in different directions, disconnected from your needs, or unsure how to move forward. Many of my clients are used to coping alone or thinking things through, but want support to connect more fully with their emotions, needs and relationships.

Sometimes, life demands more than it gives. In such moments, it can be difficult to focus on your own well-being. As a psychologist, I am here to support you with empathy, respect, and within a safe space - to help you restore your inner balance.
Together, we create lasting change - for your personal and/or professional concerns.
The aim of our work is to support your autonomy - meaning the ability to be more aware, to make conscious choices, and to respond to yourself and others in ways that feel authentic and aligned with who you really are.
Additionally interested in an online groupworkshop "self-worth&confidence"? eMail me.

In a therapeutic relationship in which we are ourselves without a social mask and fully present, our brains, the most amazing organs in the universe, are continually shaped. You don't need to succumb to anxiety, stress, and other negative emotions. False fears and wrong beliefs affect all of us, you are not alone. Thoughts are not facts. Once you have become proficient at identifying your automatic thoughts and emotions, you could live the life you love and love the life you live. When thinking about the most meaningful life for yourself, you could also consider your strengths and how to make use of your own great potential.

"We live life forwards, but only understand it backwards" - Søren Kirgegaard. As a systemic counsellor and therapist, I always see people as part of a system. What they experience there, which values are represented and how they communicate with each other decisively shapes us. Like a mobile, every link and every movement has an influence on the rest of the system. This way of looking at things helps us to look at our own system from a distance, to better understand its origins and connections and to initiate appropriate changes.

Career Guidance Counsellors
How do I know if I need career counselling?
Determining whether a career counsellor is needed involves assessing one's current career and identifying what changes can be made to improve one's overall quality of life. In particular, feelings of loss of motivation, fatigue, anxiety, depression, procrastination, or ongoing levels of high stress can all be indicative of a need for career-related counselling. In addition, individuals changing jobs may want the decision-making support or self-reflection opportunities provided by a career counsellor.
Who can benefit from career counselling?
Anyone can benefit from the self-reflection, skill development, and stress management techniques that career counselling can provide. However, individuals who are feeling overwhelmed or burnt out with their current job and individuals considering a major career change may particularly benefit from career counselling to improve their wellbeing. Additionally, individuals who are facing issues in their current job, such as coworker relationship challenges or not meeting performance goals, may benefit from the perspective that a career counsellor can provide. College-age or young professionals may also uniquely benefit from career counselling as they make key decisions surrounding education and job training that will impact their career trajectory.
How long does career counselling typically last?
The length of career counselling can vary greatly depending on the needs of the individual and what type of support they are seeking Career coaching or advising services—which serve clients in a specific, goal-oriented capacity—often last for a shorter duration and are sometimes only a single session or a few sessions in length. In contrast, career counselling as part of a more integrative therapeutic relationship with a counsellor may last longer, particularly if the issues faced by the client are longstanding and/or more complex in nature; in such cases, individuals may expect therapy to last multiple months or longer.
How to prepare for career counselling?
Clients can prepare for career counselling sessions by outlining the specific topics they would like to address with the counsellor, such as current job challenges or hopes for the future of their career. Compiling one's thoughts on such topics often requires reflection on one's career and future goals, which in itself can be beneficial for session preparation. Clients may also want to put together a list of questions they would like to ask the counsellor, particularly if the career counsellor they are seeing has particular expertise in a given career area. Conducting research into potential future jobs, training opportunities, or support resources in one's area may also help clients prepare for career counselling by providing them with a background of what resources are available in their area.
