A Happy Place

At BHC, we constantly participate in and create opportunities for happiness. Events and activities that bring a smile on our patients faces mean the world to us.

Here are some of our most recent examples of creative art and activities created by our patients, following DBT principles and therapeutic unit based programming.

Mr. Softee Ice Cream

Our “Mr Softee Ice Cream" event was a hit with the youth. With parental consent, patients enjoyed a supervised outdoor experience by ordering from an ice-cream truck (on our grounds). Music, ice cream art and air. Indeed a Happy Place.

Masks to the Soul

This directive involves exploring the inner self to discover what makes one strong and resilient.

Open Studio

In support of the LGBTQ community, this directive encourages patients to self-express and self-validate as well as motivate and educate others.

The Coping Skills Tool Box

This directive helps to identify healthy coping skills that can be utilized during times of stress and anxiety.

Music That Heals

Our link with Covid-19 Food Programs, facilitated our participation in live virtual concerts of “Music that Heals” by musicians and actors that are known to patients and staff. We received positive feedback and our recipients were able to enjoy and relax in a safe viewing space.

Feelings Bird Houses

The "Feelings Bird Houses” is a birdhouse built, painted and filled with patients expressions of health and well being and are hung on the trees to symbolize the ability to “soar through the wind."

The FISH Scene

The FISH scene is a “magic sensory color” smell, touch, feel directive for Dementia patients to create scenes and express emotions through art.

The Heart Maps

Creating heart maps helps patients identify their role in societal groups by indicating what is in their heart by using words or images.
