HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH SCREEN TIME FOR OUR CHILDREN AND TEENS?

2010-06-15T02:01:08+00:00

Between watching television and videos, Twittering, surfing the Internet, texting and playing computer or video games, it seems that our kids are spending more of their time than ever looking at some sort of screen, which begs the question -- How much screen time is too much?  As a psychologist, of course I’ve always been witness to the extreme cases.  However, over the past few years, screen time concerns rank up there for why kids and teens are coming to therapy.  This Summer I worked with several teenager boys who were spending the majority of their free time gaming in isolation [...]

Your Mental Health vs. Your Job?

2018-11-20T00:11:53+00:00

    Published in the Loudoun Times-Mirror in April, 2010   Several sources show an increase in mental health services since the recession – increases in crisis line calls, employee assistance program counseling sessions and inpatient psychiatric hospitalizations.  This is not surprising given that the unemployment rate remains around 10 percent nationally – as a nation, these are indeed stressful times.  But the national numbers for mental health treatment don’t reflect an important subset of individuals (both in the private and public sectors) that put the concern for their job ahead of their mental health needs.  Some of these individuals are [...]

Striving for positive change is important; by following some basic steps, you can improve your chances to achieve your goals. Set reasonable [...]
