What Does a
Career Counsellor
Actually Do?
A complete, honest guide for students & parents — covering everything a professional career counsellor does, why it matters, and how Shweta Heals has helped thousands of students across Faridabad, Ballabhgarh, Badarpur & Delhi NCR find their right path.
Every parent wants the best future for their child. Every student wants a career that genuinely excites them. But when it comes to actually choosing — after 10th, after 12th, or even years into a job — most families find themselves overwhelmed, confused, and unsure where to turn. That is exactly what a career counsellor is for. At Shweta Heals, Ms. Shweta Mittal — the best career counsellor in Faridabad — has guided thousands of students across Faridabad, Ballabhgarh, Badarpur, NIT Faridabad, Old Faridabad, and Delhi NCR towards careers that genuinely fit who they are.
Understanding the role before making the most important academic decision of your child’s life
A career counsellor is a trained professional who helps students — and sometimes working adults — understand themselves deeply enough to make informed, confident career decisions. A career counsellor is not someone who tells you which career to choose. They are someone who equips you with the self-knowledge, information, and structured guidance to choose for yourself — wisely, and without regret.
The confusion about what a career counsellor actually does is surprisingly common. Many parents assume it means getting a list of recommended courses. Many students expect to be told what to study. The reality is far more powerful, personalised, and longer-lasting than either of those assumptions.
A professional career counsellor at Shweta Heals in Faridabad works with students at every stage — before stream selection in Class 10, after 12th results, mid-graduation, or even years into a career that no longer feels right. The common thread is always the same: helping a person understand themselves, their options, and the best path forward for their specific strengths and situation.
The right career is not the most prestigious one, the highest-paying one, or the one your neighbour’s child chose — it is the one that matches who you genuinely are.— Ms. Shweta Mittal, Best Career Counsellor in Faridabad, Shweta Heals

Faridabad’s Most Trusted Career Counsellor — Personalised, Practical, Proven
Ms. Shweta Mittal has spent over a decade helping students across Faridabad — including Sector 12, NIT Faridabad, Old Faridabad, Ballabhgarh, and Badarpur — find clarity, confidence, and a genuine sense of direction in their career journey. Her unique background combining social work, law, and psycho-spiritual healing gives her an unusually complete understanding of the student as a whole person — not just an exam score.
She never prescribes a career. She helps each student discover the right one for themselves — through structured assessment, honest conversation, and personalised guidance that takes family context, financial reality, and individual personality fully into account.
Located at Space Center, Parsvnath City Mall, Sector 12, Faridabad — and offering fully effective online sessions for students who cannot visit in person — Shweta Heals is accessible to every student and family across the region.
A clear, structured process from first session to complete career clarity
Initial Conversation
The first session is a relaxed, open conversation — understanding the student’s academic background, current interests, family context, concerns, and what has led them to seek career guidance. No judgment, no pressure. Just honest listening.
Aptitude & Interest Assessment
Validated psychometric and aptitude tests identify the student’s natural strengths, core interests, personality type, and learning style — replacing assumptions with objective, scientific data that forms the foundation of all recommendations.
Results Discussion & Interpretation
Assessment results are discussed in detail — in plain, accessible language for both students and parents. The counsellor explains what the results mean practically and which career directions they point towards most naturally.
Personalised Career Options
Based on the full picture — aptitude, interests, personality, family situation, and aspirations — a curated list of realistic, fulfilling career options is presented and explored together. Not a generic list. A personalised shortlist.
Complete Career Roadmap
A detailed, step-by-step career roadmap is built — covering stream selection or course selection, entrance exams to prepare for, colleges to target, timelines to follow, and the specific actions needed to reach the goal.
Ongoing Support & Follow-Up
Career counselling at Shweta Heals does not end after a single session. Ongoing follow-up support is available for admission guidance, documentation, college applications, and answering questions as the student’s journey unfolds.
Here is the honest reality of what changes when a student has professional career guidance — and what happens when they don’t:
❌ Without a Career Counsellor
- Stream chosen based on peer pressure or parental push
- Wrong college or course picked from incomplete information
- Years wasted studying something that doesn’t fit
- Entrance exams attempted without strategic planning
- Scholarship and course options missed entirely
- Career confusion persists into college and even jobs
- Chronic stress, anxiety, and low academic motivation

- Clear direction from Class 10 through to first job
- Strategic entrance exam plan based on target career
- Scholarships and financial options explored fully
