3 subtle signs your teen is struggling with social media stress
|
Hello Reader, Over the past few weeks, Ana- our emerging teen therapist, took a bold step. She deleted her social media apps. The result? She noticed just how much they had been affecting her own mental well-being. For many teen girls, social media is an everyday part of life. A place to:
But beneath the surface, it can also bring stress, anxiety, and pressure that’s not always easy to spot. In her new blog, “Understanding Social Media Anxiety in Teen Girls: A Parent’s Guide,” Ana explores why social media can be overwhelming for teens and what parents can do to help. She breaks down how things like comparison, FOMO (fear of missing out), and validation loops impact a teen’s sense of self. What I love most is that she offers simple, compassionate ways to support your daughter without needing to delete all her apps or take away her phone. It’s a practical and heartfelt read for any parent who’s ever wondered: How is social media really affecting my teen and what can I do to help?
Ana’s insights come from both personal experience and her deep passion for empowering young girls to build confidence and self-trust. 👉 Read Ana’s full article here: Understanding Social Media Anxiety in Teen Girls: A Parent’s Guide With gratitude, Chantal Psychologist| Teen Coach| Part of the Pyramid Psychology Team 2 spots left.

So glad you had the courage to open this email Reader, What a video on Will Smith's skydiving experience taught me about fear. I distincly remember it. He said, “God placed the best things in life on the other side of fear.” That line stopped me in my tracks. Because I’ve seen it. In myself and in the teen girls I work with. A girl who had the courage to set a boundary in a friendship. A teen who tries out for a team even though her knees are shaking. A young person who decides to have a...
Hi Reader, Part II on the subject of Fear. When I work with teen girls who feel stuck in fear, at some point I invite them to have a conversation with it. WHY? Because when we keep things in the shadows they feel bigger, more impossible to tackle. When we shine some light on it we see it differently, giving us the chance to interact with it differently. STORYTIME. My son and his girlfriend were taking a walk in the dark and came back to tell us there was a large dead animal down once of the...
Hello to Monday Reader, how are you doing today? My post Halloween vibes got me thinking about fear this weekend. I know this feeling in my throat all too well that tightening and dryness as if my body is crying out, “Don’t take that next step.” It’s not the kind of fear that sends you running from danger.
