Staying Home With Whit | Goali Saedi Bocci, PhD on Social Media Boundaries and Cognitive Distortions

This year has been a struggle for each of us and has challenged everyone’s mental health in some way. The uncertainty of the future is the most anxiety triggering for me. I start to spiral about the ‘what ifs” and then I just feel down. I miss seeing my family and “normalcy”...whatever that even means anymore. I am really thankful that I got to speak with Goali Saedi Bocci, Ph.D. During our conversation we discuss finding balance and setting boundaries with social media, coping with isolation, cognitive distortions and even my own triggers and anxieties.
