Default anyone know (of) a good therapist in Calgary?

I'm looking for one. Leaning towards this place on 17th, but only because it's on 17th and easily accessible... I really need recs.

For someone with your name, I highly recommend Dr. Who

Recommend the south one, have a friend who's used them and says the downtown one is not that good.

I think its in the Urgent Care in Midnapore.

I read the title as "terrorist", instead of "therapist"

Sadly, Tennant's absolutely woeful send-off has just made me more depressed. Yes, I just admitted to getting depressed over a TV show. Maybe I'll watch Pyramids of Mars and feel better.

Since you mentioned you're an english major.... if you're still in school (UofC?) try the campus counseling centre. They're pretty good and if they're the not the right people for the job, they'll put you in touch with some good places/resources. If you're a student, its free too.

They really helped out a friend of mine back in my university days.

I'm at Lethbridge, but I went to the UofC counseling once when I took a couple of classes at the UofC, and wasn't really pleased with it. Same with the UofL counselors.

In general I don't think it's worth talking to these guys if they're not PhD's. I guess like with everything else you gotta pay for quality. I mean, they do a good job for what they are, I guess, but it's not for me.

Fair enough.

The one she had dealt with called himself a Dr. In the end, her issues (depression) were beyond the scope of a couple free counseling sessions so I definitely get where you're coming from. He was however able to get her to some very good people and programs that helped her a lot. Unfortunately, I don't know specifics of those people so my info may only be of limited use but I do know she got her referral and information through the counseling centre.

Actually, with that name, I was thinking Cohaagen.

"Cohaagen! You bass-tad! Give us da air!"




In all seriousness, contact the Alberta Mental Health Board, I'm sure they can get you a list of therapist in the area.
