ART and EMDR both use eye movements. So what's the difference?

Nobody really prepares you for the part where you have to figure out who you actually are.
If you're between 16 and 25 and navigating the big questions - who you are, what you want, why you feel so different in different rooms - you're not alone, and you're not broken. It's just a really big season of life.
Aleya and Janelle are here for exactly this. Affordable therapy for teens and young adults at Tides Center, with professional support every step of the way.

Ready to slow down and figure it out? We'd love to hear from you. 💙

This week is Birth Trauma Awareness Week.
Birth trauma is real and its effects can linger long after the birth itself, for mothers, partners, and families alike.
You may have been told to just be grateful your baby is healthy. But your experience matters. What you went through matters.
At Tides Center, we offer counselling and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) to help you heal.

Friendly reminder that "it's finally summer" is not a mental health treatment.
Anxiety doesn't clock out in July. Loneliness doesn't disappear because the days are longer. And you're not broken for struggling when everyone around you seems fine.

Support is available all year - including right now.

"I tried therapy once and it didn't really work for me."
We hear this a lot. And we always say the same thing - that doesn't mean therapy doesn't work for you. It might just mean that therapist wasn't your person.
The relationship between you and your therapist is one of the biggest factors in whether therapy helps. Approach matters. Personality matters. Feeling genuinely understood matters.
You deserve someone who gets you. Don't let one mismatch be the reason you stop looking.
