You can now listen to "Social Media Isn't Therapy with Shani Tran,” the latest episode of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention's Strong Talk podcast series, hosted by AFSP Vice President for Health Equity and Engagement Victor (Vic) Armstrong, MSW.
If you’ve been on social media lately, you’ll notice more and more mental health professionals sharing advice. And while much of it is helpful, it raises an important question: where’s the line between content and care?
Today, Vic sits down with Shani Tran, a licensed professional clinical counselor, author, and content creator, to explore this phenomenon. In their conversation, Shani shares how she started posting on social media, the significant boundaries between her real and online self, and why none of the mental health content on social media counts as therapy.
We hope you listen to the episode at the link below.
