Overview
Kids these days are faced with more choices and more information than at any time in history. As the adults in their lives, it is often difficult to keep up: We don’t know what it is like to have constant access to friends (whether or not we see them in person or only online), constant access to parents (help! I forgot my homework, I don’t feel well, can you pick me up?), constant access to look up information (both good and bad) and constant feedback on how we are doing (think: likes or comments).
Dr. Lucene Wisniewski, Clinical Director and Founder of the Center for Evidence Based Treatment, will help therapists and parents think about these issues and how to approach them with the teens they love.
Learning Objectives
- List ways parents and clinicians can help teens balance time spent on technology
- Identify ways teens can filter messages they get from social media (think likes or comments)
- Demonstrate ways to help teens be more independent
- Help teens make better choices related to their mental health
Lucene Wisniewski, Ph.D., FAED, is Chief Clinical Officer, Center for Evidence Based Treatment (CEBT); and Adjunct Assistant Professor, Psychological Sciences, Case Western Reserve University.
