It was a true honour for us to participate in the 2026 York Regional Police Appreciation Night, a night that reinforced our commitment to fostering connections between our team and the community we serve. The evening was genuinely uplifting, filled with stories of bravery and dedication.

We offer our warmest congratulations to all the award winners, whose dedication and selflessness represent the pinnacle of public service. To every police officer, the entire Cadence team conveys our deep gratitude for your relentless efforts and steadfast commitment...THANK YOU!

Recognizing Early Warning Signs:

Early warning signs can often be subtle but are important to acknowledge. You may notice changes such as difficulty sleeping, sudden mood swings, increased use of substances, distancing from family or friends, or unexplained irritability. These signs can be concerning, but it is essential to remember that you are not alone. If you experience any of these changes, reaching out can make a significant difference.

Our team is dedicated to supporting you:

Tailored to the unique challenges faced by veterans and first responders, we encourage family members to seek support alongside their loved ones, ensuring that care is compassionate and comprehensive. Your well-being is our priority, and help is always available.

Comprehensive Addiction Recovery Services:

We provide a clear, compassionate pathway through addiction recovery, welcoming veterans, first responders, and their families. Our interdisciplinary team, consisting of psychologists, social workers, and addiction specialists, works closely with each individual to conduct thorough assessments and create personalized treatment plans.

Both Telemedicine and in-person appointments are integrated into our approach to ensure ongoing support, while family-inclusive care keeps loved ones engaged in the recovery journey. By involving families, we aim to strengthen lasting recovery and help all those affected remain actively involved in the healing process.

We’re Here for You:

Our ongoing commitment is to be here for you, providing guidance, support, and compassionate care every step of the way.

Every choice we make today shapes the life we live tomorrow.

In recovery, it’s not about perfection, it’s about awareness, intention, and small, consistent steps forward. Whether it’s choosing to reach out, attend a session, or pause before reacting, those moments matter more than we think.

Your future self is built one decision at a time, and if today’s choice is to take one step towards support, that’s a powerful investment in your future!

Cadence co-founder and President, Angel, had the pleasure of attending a night of tradition and celebration at this years Toronto Garrison Officers Ball.

We would like to give a special round of applause to the incredible band. Their performance truly kept the energy going from start to finish.

When our emotions are overwhelmingly intense, it is very difficult for our brain to process information and calm ourselves down.

The T.I.P.P. skill comes from Dialectal Behavioural Therapy (DBT), and it uses your body chemistry to help slow your heart rate and regulate your breathing to help you return to your baseline faster and be able to use your other coping strategies more effectively.

As the T.I.P.P. skills are a “quick fix”, make sure you don’t overdo it. Rather, use the skills in times of heightened emotional dysregulation to help the negative and overwhelming emotion(s) pass. Save this for a time when you are struggling to help be better able to utilize your coping strategies to move through the emotion and continue with your day with a little more ease.

Feel free to comment what you do in moments of distress that help you calm down and work through tough emotion dysregulation.

Cadence Co-founder and President, Angel Leigh Baccio, along with SSW student, Leora Tuff, had the pleasure of attending the Tema Foundation's 2026 Ontario Education Day What a day it was!

We want to say thank you to the speakers who took time out of their schedules to come and share their knowledge with us all. Thank you Samantha Zahra, Piero Corradetti, Dr. Tania Bielak, Mike Sears, Natasha Halliday, and John Langan . We are also happy to have had the opportunity to get signed copies of Dr. Tania Bielak’s book The Strength to Serve, as well as John Langan's book A Spark in the Dark to add to our office, and recommend taking a look if you’re interested.

This was an extremely informative and fun day spent with so many amazing people all with the same goals in mind of striving for improving mental health for those who serve/served in any capacity (Veterans, First Responders, and Frontline Workers), and tips for learning to accept the changes during the transition out of service and into what the next phase of life can look like. For this we would like to take a moment to thank Dallas Alexander for sharing his life experiences as the keynote speakers of the event, and especially for playing a few songs for us, as we know music has a unique ability to heal.
