What Do I Say Now? When the Client Says...

BOOK THREE · THE PRACTISING CAREER COUNSELLOR

50 Real-World Career Counselling Situations and How to Respond

Fifty real situations every career counsellor faces, from worried parents to students who can't decide and professionals thinking of a change. For each one, you learn what might be going on, what to ask, what to say and what to avoid.

What's inside

• 50 situations in 10 parts: school students, parents, college students and graduates, early-career and mid-career clients, assessment results, decision-making, resistance, emotionally difficult conversations and professional boundaries

• For each: what the client says, what might be going on, questions to ask, a sample dialogue, what to avoid and why, how the client might react next, and a practice exercise

• More than one defensible response where there is no single right answer

• Clear safety steps for sensitive moments, with pointers to the skills in Books 1 and 2

Who it's for

Counsellors who freeze, over-explain or give advice too fast when a client says something unexpected, and trainers and supervisors who need realistic practice material.

If you're already practising: 50 hard moments to test your judgement against, and material for training juniors.
