Therapy Language and Social Media: The Double-Edged Sword

from A Slice with 'Dice · host Corey Alderdice

The language of therapy is everywhere — from TikTok feeds to hallway conversations. Young people are learning to name their feelings and advocate for themselves like never before. But with that new vocabulary comes a risk: overgeneralizing, self-diagnosing, and shutting down dialogue before it starts.  ASMSA Executive Director Corey Alderdice explores the double-edged sword of gaining mental health frameworks through social media — how it empowers, how it complicates, and what it means for educators, parents, and students to use this language wisely.For additional thoughts from Corey, visit coreyalderdice.com.You can also follow him on Twitter/X, LinkedIn, BlueSky, YouTube, Instagram, and Threads.
