The lines between career coaching and career counselors are often blurred, but there are some differences.  Career coaches are more guided by the client’s agenda and are focused on solutions, insight, and action.  Career counselors, however, focus more on establishing a therapeutic relationship using core counseling techniques regulated by state and federal guidelines.  Many career counselors end their work after a person determines what their next career will be, while career coaches often continue by helping the individual execute a job search.
