First, Do No Harm
Kuhusu kitabu pepe hiki
He builds it. And he hands the keys to his son.
Chip Arnold has never run so much as a lemonade stand, but family takes care of family, and Benedict has never been able to tell his own boy no. When Chip hires a charming, confident behavioral health director named Dr. Scott Devane, no one at Arnold Family Practice thinks to ask the one question that matters: what does that PhD actually mean?
Nurse Dawn Vasquez asks it anyway. And loses everything for asking.
Told from the exam room to the deposition table, First, Do No Harm is a novel about the dream of “one roof” for rural healthcare, and what happens when the people meant to protect that dream protect each other instead. It is about the silence that keeps small towns running, and the cost paid by the one person willing to break it.
Because sometimes the most dangerous person in the room isn't the one who means harm.
It's the one who never has to answer for it.
Includes a Jungian analysis of the novel's central figures….the Wounded Healer, the Puer Aeternus, the Persona….and a Call to Action for readers navigating the same institutional silence.

Tiffany Solter, PhD is a mental health professional, educator, advocate, and lifelong seeker of magic whose writing explores the boundaries between life, death, justice, and the profound connections that define us. Born into a family of mountain people spanning Wyoming and Colorado, she grew up shaped, largely, by two grandmothers who taught her, one through train journeys across the West, the other chasing shooting stars across the plains, that anything is possible.
A survivor of a near-death experience in 1996, Solter spent decades integrating what she encountered in that "warm place where light is everything" into a life of healing work, academic achievement, and fierce advocacy. She holds a doctorate with a dissertation on grace and recovery, and has worked alongside peer counselors, nurses, and mental health teams she considers among the most transformative teachers of her life.
Her advocacy voice is unflinching and deeply personal. In "Be a Man": The Violence Society Ignores, Solter turns her clinical expertise and lived experience toward a crisis our culture has long refused to see: domestic violence against men. Drawing on research, survivor accounts, and her own family history, she challenges the archetypal and institutional blind spots that leave male victims invisible, unbelieved, and without adequate resources. The book is equal parts gripping fiction, Jungian psychological analysis, and practical call to action. It is complete with resource guides for survivors, supporters, military families, and children. It is the work of someone who has sat in clinical rooms with these men, loved them as family, and refused to stay silent.
She lives in what she calls Camelot, a home she and her husband Jeff manifested in childhood whispers, surrounded by family, familiars, motorcycles, and what she simply calls the magic.
“Between Worlds” is her memoir. "Be a Man" is her battle cry.
