RESIDENTIAL, VIRTUAL & HYBRID PROGRAMS
Our innovative and unique therapeutic approach is based on over twenty years of research, education, experience and practice. This experience includes providing expert advice to governments, organizations and people on what treatment courses actually work. We succeed with clients where other programs have failed; for new clients, we commit to ensuring that a remote / online or residential program with us will be the only one ever required. Our fully rational, common sense approach will give you the solutions you need to relaunch your life.
TeDDs program leads the Canadian recovery field through addressing the proven scientific reality of what addiction actually is. Brain changes in addiction are proven and we understand them. Alcoholism and addiction progress over a lifetime through epigenetic changes affecting perceptions, reactions, behaviours and increasingly flawed decision making processes. Regardless of the substances, without proper treatment all paths lead to the same tragic results. Through education and insight oriented therapy, our clients finally gain mastery over addiction by seeing how it has developed, why it has such a hold over them and why it continues even while knowing what it has done to their lives and their families.
Recent discoveries in neuroscience over the past 15 years clearly show that the brain and mind of an addict and alcoholic has distinctly different functioning from persons who do not have this disorder. TeDDs has developed a model for the development of addiction along the life course by understanding each of the neuroscientific components of this complex disorder. Matching these changes to the brain in addiction to behaviour, both before and during substance use, allows therapy specifically designed to address the underlying root problems that have led to the often near catastrophic outcomes that result from addiction to drugs and/or alcohol.
The principle of neuroplasticity, meaning the brain and mind can and will change positively given the correct therapy and environment, is key to our approach which accelerates the process of healthy recovery and produces lasting change.
BODY
Alcoholism and drug addiction are physically injurious and often life-threatening.
A comprehensive initial assessment, support and monitoring is performed by our professional staff to ensure safe and comfortable adaptation to a sober life.
Strictly organic food at TeDDs is nutritious and delicious. Exercise class, designed by Olympic and professional coaches, delivered by a certified trainer.
Clients attain phenomenal results, regaining flexibility, motor skills and balance. Friends and family will be amazed at the 'new you,' fit, healthy and vibrant.
MIND: "Neuroplasticity" = Hope
The TeDDs program accelerates healthy neural re-adaptation (brain healing and recovery) such that clients develop healthy decision making soonest and a general sense of peace and contentment. Successful lives are put firmly on track.
Our daily bioneural- feedback assisted meditation is a method whereby your stress and emotional levels are recorded throughout the meditation. It's fun, teaches relaxation techniques and shows your progress as you begin to heal at TeDDs.
SPIRIT
Regardless of the presence, absence or type of religious beliefs, over the course of addiction and alcoholism, the spirit feels deeply wounded. As alcohol and/or drugs become increasingly impossible to control or avoid, the losses mount and despair grows, a 'tipping point' is reached.
At TeDDs, we acknowledge that clients and their loved ones have experienced enough pain and trauma and the decision has been made to start the healing journey.
Firmly grounded in the neuroscience of recovery, TeDDs' staff will help you let go of the shame and guilt of addiction, while discussing the realities of what needs to be accomplished and how to regain the trust and respect of friends, family and colleagues.
You will not leave TeDDs with a forever 'disease' of alcoholism or addiction, rather, you'll understand the true disorder for which full recovery is possible and how to regain and progress in the life you hoped for.
A Rehabilitation Experience, Second To None
With organic nutrition, education, rest, fun and an exercise program second to none, you'll leave TeDDs looking and feeling better than you or your friends and family could possibly hope for in such a short period of time.
Participation in farming activities, recreation in nature from extensive hikes in the forest, fishing and horseback lessons and riding

Healthcare and Other Licensed Professionals
It is estimated that approximately 10% to 15% of all healthcare and other licensed professionals will misuse drugs or alcohol at some time during their career, similar to those of the general population. There are multiple reasons for this including high work stress and demand, professional isolation, access to substances and pre-existing personality traits which once facilitated high achievement, yet later created a potential for substance use. Drugs and alcohol are mostly used for “recreational” purposes by healthcare and professional school students. Residents, attending physicians, nurses, dentists, veterinarians and other professionals may use substances for performance enhancement and as self-treatment for various reasons, such as, pain, anxiety, or depression.
A significant proportion becomes dependent. The TeDDs program is uniquely designed to help Canadian professionals. Realizing that one has become dependent on a substance is particularly onerous for licensed professionals, having spent significant time and resources to acquire the skills and credentials to help other people. The essence of their ability to sustain their life’s work is now under serious risk.
The TeDDs program offers expertise, privacy and confidentiality like no other in Canada for licensed professionals. We focus solely on the person and provide complete anonymity for our services. There is no signage at TeDDs; we care for no more than 5 people at a time. The kindness and politeness of our bilingual town is a breath of fresh air and you will be welcomed as a visitor, not a client in a rehab. Any notes that are taken are all returned to you on leaving TeDDs. Our credentials do not require us to report to any external agencies. We will, however, back you maximally through letters of support if you so desire.
Most importantly, while you may arrive here addicted, you will not leave as an ‘addict.’ The new neuroscience shows unequivocally that people can fully recover from this disorder. While a dreadful life experience, addiction need not be a life sentence.
