Edge of the Couch
Two good friends and experienced therapists explore the topics that were either shied away from or dismissed because they were too big, too nuanced, too risky, or too uncomfortable to address in school or even in supervision. We want to inspire and encourage therapists to think more deeply, show up more fully, and find humour and self-compassion in navigating the messier parts of being a therapist.

Why You Shouldn't Get Behind On Notes
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we respond to an anonymous post in a therapist facebook group where the therapist neglected to write a note for a client for a YEAR. We talk about the potential implications, and why it's important to stay on top of your notes.
**Remember that we are located in British Columbia, Canada, and expectations around note-taking is likely different where you work.
