In 2014, therapists have an ethical responsibility to fully understand the cultural experience, life and rules of the Internet and digital device apps. This talk is designed to offer strong encouragement for those in the counseling professions to test their digital cultural awareness while exploring the deeper meaning of it all.
In this webinar, attendees will:
- Gain insight into the various cultures within the social media world
- Grow their knowledge of behavioral addictions (sex, gambling, gaming, spending) in relationship to the Internet
- Learn which platforms are most commonly used for sexual hook-ups, affairs, infidelity and the like
- Be able to consider their individual level of "digital competency"
- Have a chance to deeply consider how digital and social media are affecting parenting and kids
- Be introduced to the current generation gap existing and growing between digital immigrants and digital natives

"As more people turn to the Internet, it is essential for therapists to leverage the Internet effectively and in this free webinar, Robert Weiss will speak about the impact of cultural experiences and how to leverage them in practices."
