40. Social Media and Adolescent Mental Health
Description
Between 80-90% of US teens report that they use social media, but we are only beginning to understand how social media use affects mental health. I had the opportunity to talk about this with WAVYTV10 News Anchor, Sarah Goode. In this episode, I share clips from our conversation about how to help kids navigate social media, share tips for talking with teens about their social media use, and share resources to help families develop a plan for healthy use of social media.
