This paper investigates the effects of a cognitive-behavioral intervention on career indecision among selected Filipino college freshmen (n=43) from a private sectarian university. Utilizing an outcome research design, the efficacy of a three-session cognitive-behavioral intervention, consisting of individual cognitive exercises, psychoeducation, behavioral role plays and homework was tested. Treatment outcomes were measured through administering Career Decision Profile (CDP), short essays and observation notes. Results revealed that there is a significant difference in the career indecision levels of the subjects with a moderate effect size of d=.41 (t (42) = 2.08,p<.05). The results have likewise demonstrated an increase in the domain of self-clarity as a result of the treatment (t (42) = 1.94, d=.35, p<.05). Implications of the findings on the practice of career counseling in educational institutions are discussed.
