Assistant Counsellor
“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams”
They say it matters not what we are born, what matters is what we grow up to be; all we have to do is make the choices and put in the work.
It’s fairly easy to dream about things. A particular lifestyle, a certain type of career; in our imaginations, it’s all within our reach. It is our education and commitment; however, that helps transform those imaginations into realities. With hard-work and honesty, all is possible, whether it’s our vision of the ideal life or a better version God has planned for us. The Westminster Counselling Depatment is designed not only to guide and facilitate our students, but to help them set realistic and impactful goals. With clear-cut objectives and a vision for the future, we help the students at Westminster Academy, Islamabad, to actualize their objectives and bring their career and educational plans to fruition. Our counselling strategy is simple and revolves around two major goals; understand the abilities of each individual student and help create a custom vision and career path for the student that brings out the best in them. With a belief in the student and a commitment to bring out the best in them, our counselling boasts placements worldwide and a highly successful alumni.
