  • Ethical Considerations: Navigating professional ethics, client autonomy, and modern dilemmas in career exploration.

Contemporary Issues & Mental Health
  • Interplay of Career and Mental Health: Addressing existential anxieties, stress, depression, and personal alignment in daily work.
  • Modern Economic Disruption: Career dynamics shaped by the COVID-19 pandemic and systemic shifts like the Great Resignation.
