Social media is one of those forces that’s so constant we can forget it’s shaping us. It impacts attention, identity, nervous systems, relationships, and meaning-making—and our clients are trying to heal inside that reality. In our first March meeting, we’ll explore social media as both a mirror and a magnifier: reflecting what’s already there while intensifying anxiety, comparison, performance, and validation-seeking.

Bring one question to group:

• How does social media influence your sense of attention, self, or connection?

• What patterns of comparison, performance, or validation do you notice (in you or your clients)?

• How do you talk about social media use without shaming the coping?
