In this interactive 2.5-hour virtual instructor-led course, attendees will build awareness of the impact of social media on increasing rates of social anxiety in teens and young adults. This training will also present ways to use therapeutic techniques to address social media-driven anxiety, both for young people and care providers.

This training will include multimedia components intended to reflect and emulate the fast-paced flow of modern social media content and the anxiety it can induce in teens and young adults.
