The Tangle: Episode 12

Howdy CT Community! 🤠

For the Calgarians tuning in, we hope you had a fantastic Stampede. Wherever you sit on the Stampede spectrum—us locals always seem to either love it or hate it—one thing is true: there’s a vibrancy and energy to the city each year when those boots get dusted off.

It was great connecting with folks at events throughout the city last week. We’re so grateful for our Calgary community. While we have lofty ambitions to support entrepreneurs all across Canada (and beyond!), Calgary is home. We planted seeds and grew our roots here, and there’s definitely something special about our ecosystem. 

So, as we all slow down after the last two weeks of festivities, and as we embrace the change of pace and routine that comes with the summer months, here’s a shoutout to our incredible Calgary community. We appreciate you! ❤️

Tips & Tools 🛠

Making sure your counsellor is the right fit for you is an integral part of therapy—the client-counsellor relationship is key! Wondering how to do that? Here’s a few tips for that consultation call to make sure you’re aligned. 

👉 Get on the same page. After explaining what’s brought you to therapy (and what you hope to work on), find out how your therapist might approach your concerns. Does that approach make sense to you? 

👉 Ask questions. Whether you want to know about the therapy process in general or about the specific counsellor’s approach to therapy, use that 15-minute call to get the information you need to make an informed choice. 

👉 Be honest. If you are uncertain or hesitant for whatever reason, talk to your counsellor about your concerns. They’re there to support you in the process.
