Therapy & Coaching

We live in a digital technology world that is constantly changing. It can feel like we are constantly connected – to the point that it may feel like problematic behaviour. 

• Do you work in a high-stress environment or does your role have high levels of job demands that you feel you cannot mentally switch off outside of work, so you constantly check your phone for work messages and emails? 
• Are you neuro-divergent and find being connected to your phone, or a gaming device, can be a way to either self-soothe your emotions or escape from the constant hum and onslaught of life?
• Do you regularly feel stressed or anxious and use your phone or social media as a way to de-stress, but find it doesn’t actually work? 

For many of us, digital technology use has become a crutch or an escape. But, our technology isn’t designed as a therapeutic tool, so even if it works for a while, we slowly become hooked on constantly checking our phones, scrolling through social media, playing just a little bit longer on the game…

Through constantly repeating behaviour that we once found useful, the very thing that once brought us relief now brings us anxiety and feels empty and controlling. 

If this sounds like you, it may be time to ‘break up with your technology’ and find a way to develop a new relationship with your devices and gadgets, setting healthier boundaries and developing habits that improve your overall digital mental health and wellbeing.  

If you feel that your digital technology use has become an issue, then coaching therapy may help.
