Nurturing a Healthy Digital Diet
Screen Smart Kids is a program developed by Dr Rosaria Cantali (Education Consultant and Behaviour Specialist) and Dr Philip G. E. Tam (Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist) intended to guide therapists in the treatment of Screen Addiction.
Screen Addiction, which can be conflated with disorders like Internet or Gaming Addiction, encompasses the general overuse of screens and devices and the potential impacts on a young persons’ mental, social and academic wellbeing.
Screen Smart Kids has been developed in response to the alarming rise of technology-related mental health conditions in young people today. Where a wealth of recent academic research has signalled a recognition of the evidently serious repercussions of unchecked technology use and the need for an integrated treatment program.
Dr. Cantali and Dr. Tam, experts in their fields, have both worked in government and private sectors delivering a broad range of evidenced-based treatments and assessments specifically catered to ensuring the mental health and wellbeing of young people. Following their combined research and clinical experience, they have developed this pioneering treatment program to assist clinicians in their formulation and management of screen addiction.
