Building Digital Resilience, Safety, and Recovery Pathways for Adolescents

As technology becomes increasingly woven into every aspect of teens’ lives, treatment centers face a growing challenge: How do we prepare adolescents to safely navigate the digital world without compromising their emotional, psychological, or physical safety?

Join us for a research-backed panel discussion on the role of technology in treatment—featuring leaders from residential and therapeutic programs who are rethinking phone policies, integrating digital resilience into clinical practice, and implementing phased access as part of recovery.

In this session, panelists will explore:

• Current research linking screen time, social media use, emotional disregulation, and mental health
• Why teens struggle to self-regulate technology, and how programs can support them
• The shift from “no phones” to structured, skills-based digital access
• How phased access and individualized digital plans empower adolescents to transition safely back into independent life
• Real-world examples from programs that have reduced incidents, strengthened clinical outcomes, and increased resident safety
• Practical frameworks for clinicians, program directors, and behavioral health leaders

👉 This session is designed for behavioral health leaders, clinicians, program directors, and residential treatment professionals seeking actionable approaches to integrating technology into treatment in a safe, developmentally aligned, and therapeutically effective way.
