Jayasinghe traces and discusses the ambivalence, resistance, often blatant hostility to the self-evident truth that a counselling approach to careers practice is crucial to ensure positive outcomes for clients\" - Jenny Bimrose, Head of Centre for Training in Careers Guidance, University of East London  Making the right career choice has a profound impact on our lives. It influences our welfare, our sense of well-being and our state of mind. This book offers a thorough introduction to the principles and concepts of career development and shows how theoretical ideas can be put into counselling practice. It explores the major influences on careers counselling today, and examines the historical development of the field. The book ends with a look at the future development of career guidance and offers some helpful strategies for change. Counselling in Careers Guidance will be a useful resource for experienced advisers and trainees in the careers service, and those offering careers guidance in a range of professional settings.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49581867827473,"sku":"GOR001667017","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0335203965.jpg?v=1751071530"},{"product_id":"one-year-in-spain-book-migel-jayasinghe-9781456485146","title":"One Year in Spain","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51162606010641,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51162608140561,"sku":"NIN9781456485146","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1456485148.jpg?v=1750923416"},{"product_id":"wayfarer-book-migel-jayasinghe-9781805880707","title":"Wayfarer","description":"\u003cp\u003eCe livre est un must-have pour tout  tudiant ou amoureux de la langue fran aise.

Although Ceylon, his actual birthplace gained independence from the British Empire when he was just 12 years old (1948).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAt secondary school he regularly won the class prize for English and contributed stories and essays not only to the college magazine, but also to the children's pages of local daily newspapers.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUnder the title 'Rudderless Living' the author paints a succinct autobiographical picture of the main events of his nomadic life. 'Overland' describes not only a trio's trip by car to Mumbai, India, starting from Cambridge, UK, but also refers to important background events in the author's life. Over the years he had been writing short stories merely as a hobby, and the reader can expect a wide variety of real life events, as well as futuristic fables, in this collection. His poems were mostly written after he retired to Spain, and reflects his daily life there. A few of his poems won recognition as 'Honorable Mentions' at various competitions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e'A Literary Smorgasbord' is the product of his literary heritage exhibiting an undoubted mastery of the English language.
