Career construction counseling (Savickas, 2011, 2015) implements life design as a new paradigm for 21st-century career intervention (Savickas, 2012; Savickas et al., 2009). Life design amplifies the vocational guidance (Holland, 1997; Parsons, 1909) and career development (Super, 1990) paradigms of 20th-century career science and practice. It does so by emphasizing human diversity, uniqueness, and intentionality in work and career to make a life of personal meaning and social consequence (Savickas et al., 2009). Since the original statement of this new paradigm, need remains for research “to identify and describe the processes underlying life-designing interventions” (Savickas et al., p. 248). Toward this end, we used Interpersonal Process Recall (Kagan, 1980) in the present study to examine a single episode of career construction counseling between a client and counselor. Our goal was to determine factors during career construction counseling that promote reflexivity and change in the life-design career intervention process.

their respective traditions of person-environment fit emphasizing traits, lifespan development emphasizing developmental tasks, and narrative emphasizing life themes to comprehend career as a story. This permits viewing individuals as, respectively, social actors who display dispositions that fit corresponding types of work environments, motivated agents who develop readiness to fit work into life, and autobiographical authors who reflexively form themselves and their careers through self-defining narratives (Savickas, 2011, 2013). Career construction theory translates to practice in the form of a counseling model and methods for helping people construct their careers.

Career construction counseling entails an interpersonal process of helping people author career stories that connect their selfconcepts to work roles, fit work into life, and make meaning through narratives about self and work. Using narrative methods, career construction counseling begins with a career construction interview (CCI; Savickas, 2011). The CCI contains a sequence of questions designed to prompt telling of the life story in a series of small, micro stories. From the telling of the life story, client and counselor co-construct a life portrait that entails an autobiographical narrative about the client’s central life theme. In co-constructing a life portrait, the counselor aims to assist the client to relate the life theme to a career problem or transition currently faced. Counselor and client then endeavor to use the life portrait to prompt the client to move intentionally toward enacting self in a life-career.
