"There is that moment of silence that comes before the storm of shock, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance when first we realize that something valuable to us has died. "
Bruce Knight, LMFT, Voices Summer 2018

"Self-silencing leads to self-alienation and a feeling of being lost to oneself. Pretending “I will be what (I think) you need me to be” to gain love and safety makes it easy to believe the enactment and eventually, grow unable to know which feelings are true." Dana C. Jack, EdD

“Men’s fears of women are underground, hidden from women and from themselves. Men have done such a good job of hiding their fears and vulnerabilities that even their mothers and lovers don’t how scared they are.” Avrum Weiss, PhD, Voices Summer 2018

“Knowledge is the gateway to making real adjustments and changes in your life. So many of them know what they need to do. They just don’t want to pay the emotional price for doing it. It takes another human being bearing witness.”
Loretta Sparks, LMFT, Voices Spring 2018

“Technology can be our best friend, and technology can also be the biggest party pooper of our lives. It interrupts our own story, interrupts our ability to have a thought or a daydream, to imagine something wonderful.
—Steven Spielberg Voices, Spring 2018

“Technology is cool, but you’ve got to use it as opposed to letting it use you.” Prince, Voices Spring 2018

“TV and cinema are technology that provide us with pre-programmed fantasies; we don’t even have to concoct our own.“
Jonathan Farber, PhD, Voices Spring 2018

Todd Essig, PhD, Voices Summer 2018

“Telepresence is the illusion of non-mediation when participating in technology-mediated relating. It provides the feeling of being there when here, of being with someone when you are sitting alone.”
Todd Essing, PhD, Voices Summer 2018
