A space where youths feel heard and empowered

A new support group for teens offers in-person guidance to help them navigate an increasingly digital world

Assistant Professor Ray O'Niell: 'There’s a reason why young people are going onto social media and seeking affirmation there.'

The real-world consequences of risky behaviours are often hidden or delayed in the digital world where today’s teens spend so much of their time.

That’s according to Dr Ray O’Neill, assistant professor in psychotherapy at Dublin City University. “We’re living in a world in which consequences are invisible or are only realised tragically too late.”
