~By Hannah Lipschutz, Graduate Clinical Intern For over two years, we have lived in a world full of unknowns and uncertainty. Like many of you, COVID-life became my new normal – the fear, hypervigilance, and putting much of life on hold. As quickly as it arrived and took over, it seemed to dissipate – leaving […]

Today is National Suicide Prevention Day and every part of me wants to change that to say National Suicide Awareness Day (which is exactly what I do on my own posts). While I consider it a valiant goal to strive for prevention of suicide, my sense is that we could never reach 100% prevention and […]

Well, here we are, officially over a month into when our sense of ‘normal’ changed as we knew it. We in the U.S. were the just the latest country to fall victim to the growing pandemic of COVID-19, forcing schools to close and businesses to shut down in an effort to contain the spread. Teleworking […]

“All of humanity’s problems stem from man’s inability to sit quietly in a room alone.” French philosopher, Blaise Pascal ~*~ Written in 17th century France…yet somehow, it applies perfectly today. In a world that keeps us virtually “connected” throughout our waking hours…and often during our sleeping hours as our phones track our breathing, heart rate, […]

One of the ways I stay mentally healthy is through Bibliotherapy…otherwise known as reading, pondering, discussing, back to reading… Whether it’s a self-help book, or a psychology related non-fiction, memoirs, or a good well constructed novel, books help me to see the world from a new perspective and always serve to improve my mental […]

My life has been marked by loss and resiliency. Throughout my childhood I navigated many deaths, most due to the aging family I entered as a late-in-life baby, but others that occurred much before their time. My paternal grandfather had died by suicide some 15 years before I was born, yet this loss permeated my […]

Though Bodhi was officially established in July of 2011 and opened its doors to clients in January of 2012, it had been formulating for quite some time. Jesse Fairchild, the founder of Bodhi, was working in a well-established practice in Harford County, carrying a large caseload and building a strong reputation in the community. She […]

Sometimes you have to take a stand. Sometimes you can’t wait for someone else to do it. Sometimes there are no shades of grey, but only black or white. And you must choose the black or the white. There is no middle ground here. You either believe that humans are human and therefore deserve basic […]

Social media (sigh). It’s something that most of us use on a semi-regular basis, and others of us cannot imagine NOT using at least several times a day. Social media used wisely can be a way to stay connected with family who are far away, friends you haven’t seen in years, or serve as a […]
