Who is The Long Haul Careers for?

If you're at a crossroads,
you're in the right place.

I work with people at real turning points; not just the ones society has a neat script for. If your situation doesn't fit a tidy box, that's okay. Lots of people's don't.

Hi, I'm Naomi 👋
About Naomi

A well-travelled,
straight-talking
careers practitioner.

I'm a qualified, registered Career Development Practitioner - career counselling is unregulated in Australia, and that distinction matters. Over 10+ years across four Victorian universities, I've sat with hundreds of people at exactly the kind of crossroads you might be at right now.

The Long Haul Careers exists because helping someone pursue what's actually in their heart is the kind of work I find genuinely meaningful. Whether it's navigating a tricky admissions process, planning a gap year with real intention, or finding clarity about a direction they didn't yet have words for; knowing someone left a conversation feeling more settled and more themselves is why this exists.
