Mindset shifts don’t happen overnight, they’re shaped by the brain’s ability to adapt, also known as neuroplasticity. The more you practice new ways of thinking, the stronger those pathways become. 🤝🏻

Research shows that self-awareness practices (like journaling or guided reflection) can speed up these changes, helping you notice unhelpful patterns sooner and replace them with healthier responses. 👉🏻And here’s the part most people overlook: your environment matters. Surrounding yourself with supportive people and safe spaces reinforces the mindset changes you’re working toward.

Therapy ties all of this together by offering tools, accountability, and an intentional space to practice growth. Ready to work on it with us? 💛

We hear this phrase all the time: “I just want my spark back.” ✨

It’s what people say when they feel disconnected from themselves... when joy feels out of reach, when exhaustion feels constant, when life feels more like survival than living.

The truth is, your spark isn’t gone. It’s buried under stress, grief, and the weight of expectations. With the right tools and support, it can be uncovered.

Swipe through for simple, therapist-backed ways to start finding your light again. And remember: therapy isn’t about “fixing” you: it’s about helping you reconnect with the parts of yourself you thought you’d lost.

Your spark is still there. Let’s help you find it. 💛

Outgrowing people doesn’t mean you’ve failed them or that they’ve failed you. It means you’ve changed, and what you need around you has changed too. 💌

We’re wired to think every friendship or relationship has to last forever. But some were only meant to walk with us for a season. And that’s okay.

Therapy can help you understand this shift without guilt or resentment. To recognize that moving on isn’t betrayal, it’s making space for who you’re becoming.

Growth doesn’t always fit the old version of your life. And that’s the point.

As therapists, we’re always watching media with a different lens. In what looks like classic love-triangle angst is actually rich with emotional patterns we often see in real life.

From Belly’s identity shifts to Jeremiah’s fear of abandonment and Conrad’s grief-driven withdrawal, there’s a lot beneath the surface.

Swipe through for our take, and let us know what you noticed too. 👇

Therapy gives us language for these moments: both on screen and off. 😊

Because sometimes, it’s not just about her. 💍
Moments like these tap into something bigger: the stories we carry about love, belonging, and hope.

Celebrity milestones can stir emotions we didn’t expect because they remind us of what we want, what we’ve lost, or even what we thought we’d never have. It’s not “silly” or “dramatic.” It’s human. 🌎

Psychologists call this parasocial connection....when the people we follow become anchors for our own feelings and dreams. These emotions are valid, but if they leave you feeling stuck, isolated, or triggered, it might be time to look inward.

Therapy creates space to unpack those reactions, helping you connect them back to your own story and needs. At TBAC, we support clients through these layered experiences with evidence-based approaches that make sense of emotions, instead of shaming them. ✨

You’re not “too sensitive.” You’re responding to something deeply human. And with the right support, those tears can guide you toward understanding what your heart truly wants. 💛

At TBAC, we believe therapy shouldn’t feel out of reach- financially or personally.

Studies show that cost is one of the top reasons people avoid seeking mental health support. That’s why we work hard to make therapy affordable and accessible:

✅ Accepting most major insurance plans
✅ Offering multiple clinicians with different specialties and styles
✅ Flexible scheduling: including evenings and weekends
✅ Options for individual, couples, and group therapy

No matter your background, we want you to feel supported in finding the right fit. Because everyone deserves access to care that meets them where they are.

Every relationship experiences challenges from miscommunication to shifting priorities and life stressors. What often gets overlooked is how impactful these struggles can be on overall well-being:

💡 Studies show that couples who seek counseling early report higher relationship satisfaction compared to those who wait until conflicts escalate. In fact, research by the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy found that over 90% of couples who attend counseling feel their emotional health improves, and nearly two-thirds experience better physical health as well.

Couples counseling isn’t just for relationships “in crisis.” It’s a space to:
✔ Strengthen communication
✔ Rebuild trust
✔ Deepen emotional connection
✔ Navigate transitions and challenges together

At TBAC, our licensed therapists provide evidence-based couples counseling designed to support both partners while honoring the relationship as a whole.

Because every relationship deserves the chance to heal, grow, and thrive. ❤️‍🩹

Ever caught yourself spiraling after a quick scroll?
One second you’re sipping coffee… the next you’re convinced you’re not doing enough, achieving enough, or even living enough.

That’s the sneaky power of comparison. It creeps in quietly, then suddenly your mood shifts.

But here’s the truth: social media isn’t real life, it’s the highlight reel. And you can protect your peace while still enjoying it.

Swipe through for 6 ways to step out of the comparison trap and back into your own lane ❤️

We say it often because it matters: Mental health is health.

When your mind is struggling, everything else feels heavier: sleep, focus, energy, relationships, motivation. And yet, so many push through, normalize the stress, or think it’ll pass.

But here’s the truth:
✔️ People with strong mental wellbeing are 2.5x more likely to report overall good health.
✔️ Prioritizing mental health can reduce your risk of chronic illnesses like heart disease and diabetes.
✔️ And therapy? It doesn’t mean something is “wrong.” It means you’re choosing to invest in a better way to live.

A healthy mind doesn’t just help you cope… it helps you thrive. And at TBAC, we’re here to walk that journey with you.

📍TBAC, Therapy that sees the whole you.
