Last you heard from me, a little over a year ago, I made the not so bold prediction that COVID-19 would shine the light on disparities and access to care. Not shockingly that came to fruition. From initial access to telemedicine services to the ongoing launch of vaccines, outcomes have demonstrated a lack of equity.

When Gaétan from Winnie’s Picks first approached me, asking if I’d like to experiment with a cool adult paint-by-numbers project, I was so excited and couldn’t say yes fast enough. As an avid amateur crafter (who sucks at most crafts), I have enthusiasm in spades…and painting talent in drips. This is what the kit look like when it arrived. Gaétan then let me know that I could actually paint a photo of my own choosing, and that by simply uploading a photo I loved, I could personalize my painting.

May being National Foster Care Month, I asked Erica Schultz, our Foster Care Licensing Specialist, what she would like to tell people about our programs. Two things immediately came to her mind. First, the goals of Shelter’s Foster Care Programs are different from adoption agencies. The purpose of adoption agencies is to facilitate adoptions between birth parents and adoptive parents.

A Splintered Mind

Sometimes the best kind of journal is the one that you shred, light on fire, then cast its ashes to the wind. Last January, I woke up severely depressed one morning. At first, I didn’t realize what was happening. I just knew that I had no will to move, no will to eat, no will to do anything. I felt interred with heavy, suffocating sadness. Mmm, that sounds rather dramatic, doesn’t it?
Clinical Philosophy

What distinguishes the master therapist? I've long suspected that an important aspect of such a therapist is her moral seriousness. By that phrase - moral seriousness - I mean something quite specific. Rather than define it I'd like to first say what I don't mean by it, and to then allow the sense of it to emerge from an example. So, what I don't mean is moral shrillness, or moralising, or a failure of empathy, or an absence of the light touch, or an inability to take oneself less than seriously

Since March of 2020, the pandemic fists have been pummeling children from every direction, just as they have adults, but often in different ways. Before we can learn how to help our kids, we need to know their challenges , and there we have help. For example, psychologist Tali Raviv from Northwestern University published a study involving over 40,000 Chicago Public School children from kindergarten through 12 th grade in April 2021.

In anticipation of my second COVID vaccine (knowing that I had a reaction after the first and would probably spend a couple of days in bed), I ran a poll on the Beautiful Voyager Instagram to find out if there were hidden gems in the streaming world that I hadn’t come across. The recommendations were so great that I didn’t want to keep them to myself.
