Building on 2009 and 2025 position papers on career counselling, and on the fourth paradigm for careers in the XXIst century, this article proposes a transformational framework for career counselling in line with the Anthropocene era and the emerging Counsellocene perspective in career counselling. It investigated how career counselling could respond to technological disruption, socio-economic inequality, and ecological crises to help people construct meaningful, hopeful, and sustainable career-lives. Recent scholarship was synthesised based on an adapted qualitative systematic literature review. Deductively, and drawing on well-established theoretical frameworks, five thematic domains were uncovered. Inductively, subthemes of these domains were identified. The findings suggested that career counselling practice move towards transdisciplinary approaches that engage people as active authors of their career-lives against the backdrop of social justice and planetary imperatives. The proposed model emphasises agency, hope, and adaptability while helping people recognise their roles in reversing environmental degradation and building equitable futures.
