Dr. Lisa Strohman: Parenting in a Tech Addicted World




Dr. Strohman has become widely known for her advocacy and education around mental wellness as it relates to our digital lives. She has worked with thousands of parents, schools and children around the globe. An attorney, clinical psychologist, and author, Dr. Strohman established the Digital Citizen Academy, a non-profit program offered to schools with an in-home plan that educates, empowers and inspires balance and prosocial use of technology.


Dr. Strohman is also the co-author of the book Digital Distress. The first book of its kind to focus specifically on Gen Z, highlighting how children, who have grown up with technology as ubiquitous as air, are impacted by the challenges of growing up in a digital world. Drs. Strohman and Westendorf utilize their extensive clinical and forensic experience to offer the latest evidence-based insights.

Laura Stack's Presentation Feedback and Website Link

Thanks to all who came to Laura Stack's presentation last night! All who attended were impressed with Laura's powerful presentation. I've had several conversations with attendees who expressed how unaware they were of the current dangers associated with high potency marijuana products. Landerschools is seeing an increase in students' use of these products. Especially concerning to us is the increased level of impairment the kids are exhibiting. Laura has developed a website that does a fantastic job of addressing the issue. Additionally, she has made available much of the latest science and research on these products.

Here is a link to Laura's website with more information.

If you attended, please take the time to complete our survey.
