Tidal model therapy: a new wave for anxiety resilience?
NCT ID NCT07768995
First seen Aug 17, 2026 · Last updated Aug 18, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether an online psychiatric nursing program based on the Tidal Model can improve psychological resilience and self-compassion in adults diagnosed with anxiety disorder. Participants are randomly assigned to either receive eight one-on-one online nursing sessions guided by the model's principles or to continue with routine care only. The study measures changes in resilience and self-compassion scores before and after the eight-week period to see if this patient-centered approach helps people build inner strength and a kinder self-voice.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Online psychiatric nursing sessions based on the Tidal Model
- What this could lead to
- If effective, this approach could offer a new, accessible way to help people with anxiety build resilience and self-compassion, potentially improving long-term mental health.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial (32 participants) testing a behavioral intervention, so results may not generalize. The outcome depends on self-reported measures, and the online format may not suit everyone.
