In this episode, we explore the impact of social media on mental health through the lens of Sociometer Theory. We look at how self-esteem is affected when clients determine their value and self-worth through social media responses and discuss how to recalibrate client self-esteem sources. Victoria Alercia-Casella, LPC, our guest host for this episode, also shares treatment approaches and interventions (and an app) for clients presenting with depression and low self-esteem.
