The purpose of this study was to explore and assess the feasibility of counselling based on life-design principles in enhancing the career resilience of children who are exposed to family violence. The research project involved a QUALITATIVE-quantitative mode of inquiry with six participants chosen based on certain characteristics. Life-design-related intervention strategies, together with various (postmodern) qualitative and quantitative techniques, were used to gather data, while data analysis was done using thematic content analysis. Quantitative data was collected from parent(s) as well as the participant(s) before and after the intervention. Certain themes, sub-themes, and sub-sub-themes that all contributed to participants’ career resilience, were identified. Following the intervention, findings obtained from a qualitative perspective indicated that the results of the life-design-related counselling intervention were substantial. I came to the conclusion that various narrative techniques could be used to enhance the career resilience of children exposed to family violence. Future research could assess the value of life-design counselling in enhancing the career resilience of survivors of family violence in diverse group contexts. A greater focus could be placed on the (unforeseen) external trauma that had an impact on participants’ ability to (re-)construct their career-life narratives to enhance their future selves and careers.
