“…Much of this research involved case studies of individual counseling sessions and self‐guided career intervention. Results of these studies have indicated positive client change, including increases in reflexive action (Hartung & Vess, 2016; Taylor & Savickas, 2016), self‐reflection (Cardoso, Gonçalves, Duarte, Silva, & Alves, 2016; Cardoso, Silva, Gonçalves, & Duarte, 2014; Hartung & Santilli, 2017), agency (Di Fabio, 2016; Maree, 2014; Taylor & Savickas, 2016), vocational certainty (Cardoso, Gonçalves, et al, 2016), self‐awareness (Maree, 2014, 2016a; Maree & Twigge, 2016), new career narratives that enhance quality of life (Setlhare‐Meltor & Wood, 2016), satisfactory work‐related contexts (Maree, 2015; Maree & Twigge, 2016), and willingness to deal more adaptively with career‐related challenges (Maree, 2016a). Research on life‐design group counseling and online group counseling has indicated similar changes for participants in the form of developing a unique sense of self (Maree, Pienaar, & Fletcher, 2018); fulfilling an identity (Barclay & Stoltz, 2016b); increasing career decision‐making readiness (Barclay & Stoltz, 2016a; Di Fabio & Maree, 2012); improving meaning making (Lengelle, Meijers, & Hughes, 2016); and elevating career certainty, career self‐efficacy (Cardoso, Janeiro, & Duarte, 2017), and career adaptability (Maree & Symington, 2015; Nota, Santilli, & Soresi, 2016).…”

Maree (2015a) states that currently the aim of life design counseling for career construction, guidance, and life counseling intervention is to help people, individually and in groups, deal with transitions brought about by fundamental changes in occupational contexts. Guichard (2013 , 2015 ) believes that ISC development can play an important role in achieving this aim.…”
