Social media can be great for staying connected, networking and sharing information. But let's face it – it can also be time consuming and detrimental to your mental health if not kept in check. This week Dr. Nicole is talking to Amber Thornton, Founder of Mindful Media LLC to discuss social media and mental health as well as the app she created to help us limit our social media use while enhancing our mindfulness

Amber Lois Thornton is the founder of Mindful Media LLC., which provides access to a mobile application--encouraging limited social media exposure and mindfulness practices.
