Our Career Counselling Service in Ottawa, Ontario

Ottawa Career Counselling Backed by Psychology, Strategy, and Deep Knowledge of the Local Job Market

As Canada’s capital, Ottawa offers a distinct career environment—one where government, public policy, tech, healthcare, and education intersect with a growing private sector. It’s a bilingual, stable, and opportunity-rich city, but it also has a complex hiring landscape, often shaped by internal promotion, security clearances, and nuanced cultural expectations.

At Mindful Career, we provide Ottawa career coaching and Ottawa career counselling that’s specifically designed for this market. Our team of career psychologists, strategists, and certified coaches blends behavioural science with local market insight to help you make confident, aligned, and strategic career decisions.

What makes our Ottawa approach different?

We understand the inner workings of Ottawa’s public sector, including how to navigate career transitions within federal departments, crown corporations, and NGOs.
We also track emerging trends in Ottawa’s private sector—like the rapid growth of the tech corridor in Kanata, green innovation, and the city’s rise as a remote work hub.
Our team uses clinical-grade psychometric assessments to uncover your ideal career direction, strengths, motivations, and preferred work environments—so you’re not just following job listings, you’re following a strategic, evidence-based path that fits you.
We offer support in both English and French, and understand the unique bilingual demands of Ottawa’s job market—especially in government and healthcare roles.

Whether you're aiming for a federal leadership position, pivoting into the tech sector, or returning to work after a pause, we’ll help you build a clear roadmap and execute it with confidence.

➡️ Get started with a career coach in Ottawa who understands your goals—and the hiring market you’re navigating.

About Mindful Career: Career Counselling

Our Mission

Our mission is to help you find a career that fits your unique strengths, personality, and lifestyle to create a life of clarity, confidence, and purpose.
Work shapes how we see ourselves, how we feel day to day, and how we show up in the world. When your career is out of alignment, it doesn’t just affect your job, it impacts your energy, mental health, and relationships.

At Mindful Career, we help you change that. Through a powerful blend of behavioural science, clinical psychology, and holistic self-discovery, we uncover the career that truly fits your mind, your values, and your future. Because when your career reflects your true self, it’s not just fulfilling, it’s transformative.

My Story: Miriam Groom, CEO

Ten years ago, I hit rock bottom and that experience changed everything. Each morning was a reminder of how far I’d drifted from myself. I was burned out, depressed, and disconnected. I searched for support, but every solution felt surface-level. No one really saw me or knew how to help me find work that truly 'fit'. So I built what I needed. I went back to school, became an Organizational Psychologist and created a framework that blends holistic guidance, behavioural profiling with advanced psychometrics. It worked! Today, those frameworks are the foundation of Mindful Career. They've helped over 10,000 people reconnect with who they are and find careers that finally fulfills them.

If you’re feeling lost, I’ve been there. You don’t have to figure it out alone.

Our Team & Why it works

We’re not traditional coaches—we’re trained psychologists and career strategists who understand both human behaviour, holistic guidance and the realities of today’s job market.

Our award-winning programs are delivered by a team that lives and breathes this work. Using clinical-grade assessments, behavioural profiling, and real-world job strategy, we don’t just give advice, we give you a roadmap. Whether you're discovering your ideal path, navigating a job search, or stepping into leadership, we provide the expert support and clarity to help you take action, with confidence and results.
