VANESSA SHEVELEV, CAREERS PSYCHOLOGIST
Vanessa is a registered Psychologist and qualified careers practitioner with credentials that include over five years’ experience conducting private, independent career counselling and consulting for young people, adults in mid-career and mature-aged clients.

Vanessa has postgraduate qualifications in Career Development and is certified to administer psychometric vocational testing.

She has worked with students from over 20 Sydney high schools, and with clients across the media, banking, education, healthcare, IT, retail and professional services sectors.

Vanessa started her career as an Organisational Psychologist, working for Canon Australia for nine years before embarking on a career change of her own.

In the private sector, Vanessa was recognised for introducing new online technologies, transforming business processes and increasing employee productivity and satisfaction.

After having her two children, Vanessa started wanting to help people in a more personal, meaningful way.

Always inclined to quiz those she encountered on the “what/why/when/how” of their careers, Vanessa up-skilled and made the transition to Careers consulting.

Also close to her heart was the long-held belief that young people be armed and equipped with information about careers, as well as themselves, in order to start discovering where they might fit in the big wide, ever-changing world of work.

Having quite literally “fallen” into Psychology at age 17, and experiencing next-to-no careers guidance at school or university when she experienced doubts and uncertainty, Vanessa cares deeply about helping young people navigate the overwhelming choices around career, courses and subjects.

Since graduating with a Postgraduate Certificate in Career Development, Vanessa has worked as a Careers Practitioner for Career Avenues, Suzie Plush Consulting, UNSW, TAFE NSW and Outplacement Australia.

Vanessa’s combination of psychology and careers puts her in the ideal position to connect with clients to develop insights, tools and practical steps that will help them achieve their career goals.

Vanessa is an Associate Member of the Australian Psychological Society, a Professional Member of the Career Development Association of Australia, and holds MBTI and Career Avenues accreditation.
