The Teens and Screens Guide offers a structured yet flexible approach, providing practical, neuroaffirming strategies to help young people and families reflect on how technology use impacts wellbeing, identify activities that bring joy and balance, and develop a mindful approach to healthy tech habits — an essential step for the holiday season. 

Technology is a normal and important part of modern life, supporting connection, creativity, and learning. As clinicians, we have the opportunity to help families understand how different types of screen use affect energy, emotions, and daily routines, and to shift the focus from restriction to intentional, values-led technology use.
