Technology:
Functioning and Flourishing in the Digital Age

Technology today is ubiquitous and inescapable. As mental health professionals and educators we must constantly evaluate the role that technology plays in the lives of the individual and families we work with including its impact on social, psychological and behavioral functioning.

Through this session, we delve into the challenges posed by the digital age, with a keen focus on the evolving realm of psychological practice, education, and research. This program is designed to navigate the uncharted waters of this technological surge, equipping educators and mental health professionals with up-to-date insights into the intricate interplay between technology and functioning. By delving into the most recent data and scholarly exploration, participants will uncover essential resources that empower them to navigate this transformative digital landscape.
