About The Right Room

Counselling in Alberta

Evidence based and relational counselling in Alberta.

Why Context Matters

Therapy cannot ignore context.

I founded The Right Room on a simple belief: context is everything.

The field of psychology in the Western world has long reflected the perspectives of a narrow group, often framing distress as something broken within the individual; while overlooking the realities of culture, oppression, and environment.

At The Right Room, therapy begins with the belief that your story cannot be separated from the rooms, systems, cultures, relationships, and expectations that shaped it.

This is why my work is both culturally responsive and neurodivergent affirming. It’s why I view therapy as deeply human and, yes, political. Because when therapy pretends to be “neutral,” it often ends up siding with the status quo.

Here, I choose differently. My aim is to create a space where your complexity, your identity, your gendered experience, your neurodivergence, and your story are not pathologized but honored.

The Right Room

Both a promise and a pursuit.

Cultural humility and systemic awareness are practices, not achievements.

The name The Right Room is both a promise and a pursuit. It represents a commitment to continually deepening cultural competence and advocating for neurodivergent voices.

Cultural humility and systemic awareness are practices, not achievements. Holding this vision is part of how I resist the status quo.

My hope is that when you walk into The Right Room, you’ll feel it: that therapy here is different. That you’re not “too much.” That this is a place where you can lay it all down, and begin again.

The Therapist Behind The Right Room

Therapy with a real human.

Hi, I’m Hannah Tan, founder of The Right Room and a Registered Provisional Psychologist providing counselling in Calgary and Cochrane that is both evidence based and relational.

Most of my clients describe themselves as the strong one, the reliable one, the person everyone turns to. On the outside, they’re composed and capable. Inside, they’re often running on empty.

My approach blends clinical depth with genuine warmth. You won’t find a blank slate or a distant professional here; you’ll find a real human who’s curious about your story, grounded in evidence based practice, and deeply committed to helping you find your footing again.

Whether we’re exploring identity, relationships, or the quieter parts of your inner world, therapy with me is a space where your complexity is welcome.
