Problematic gaming gets experienced in many households, but can be SO HARD to find any information about! Jennifer J. Park, PhD, has been working on gaming disorder since 2018. After realizing that New Zealand had no existing programs to help people specifically with gaming disorder, Jennifer set out to study this growing concern. Therapists and people at that time were accessing pre-existing addiction programs, but had nothing to help with gaming specifically.
