We’ve all got our coping mechanisms… but some things deserve more than a coffee run, a new inspo board, or another episode of The Office. 💙

October is National Depression Awareness Month—a reminder that depression can look different for everyone, and you don’t have to wait until things feel overwhelming to reach out for support.

Ohel’s Tikvah Clinic provides compassionate, professional mental health care for individuals and families.

📍 With locations in Brooklyn, Far Rockaway, and Hillcrest, as well as telehealth services, support is within reach.

Sometimes, the best thing you can do for yourself is reach out. 💙

Three years after the October 7 atrocities, the passage of time does not lessen their impact.

Anniversaries of trauma can bring grief, fear, and painful memories back to the surface, and remind us how deeply trauma can reshape our lives, our communities, and our sense of the world around us.

Today, Dr. Norman Blumenthal, Director of Trauma at the Ohel Zachter Family National Trauma Center, calls on us to make space for reflection—on the lives lost, the suffering endured, and the ways we and our world have changed since October 7.

October marks Domestic Violence Awareness Month. 💜

Recently, friends of Ohel gathered for a Women’s Bouquet Workshop, creating beautiful arrangements for women in Ohel’s Domestic Violence Program, a simple gesture of care, encouragement, and community.

Ohel provides survivors of domestic abuse and coercive control with confidential, trauma-informed support, including safe housing, counseling, safety planning, and the resources to move forward with dignity and independence.

This month, we stand with survivors and reaffirm that no one should have to face abuse alone.

A sukkah is temporary. The connections we build inside it can last far beyond the chag. 💙

This Sukkot, individuals in Ohel’s Kadimah Program brought their creativity to our sukkah, handcrafting meaningful decorations inspired by friendship, community, and what it means to belong.

Ohel’s Kadimah Program provides adults living with mental health challenges with a supportive environment to build skills, foster relationships, express themselves, and work toward their personal goals.

We’re proud to celebrate a Sukkot filled with creativity, connection, and belonging. 🌿

Chag Sameach from our to yours!

Here’s to making 5787 the year your resolutions stick.
