This is why understanding our social needs is so important, so join Dr. Vicki to learn more about the benefits of Social Self-Care in your life!

How much social time do we really need? How many and what kind of relationships make us happiest? And what types of interactions do we reap the most benefits from? The answer to these questions will be different for everyone, but in this video, Dr. Vicki will help guide you to answer these questions for yourself, to better understand your own social needs!

While all relationships are unique and different, there are some key elements that all relationships require for them to be healthy and supportive for our mental and emotional wellbeing. In this video you'll learn from Dr. Vicki how to build mutual understanding, practice non-judgemental communication, and foster trust and respect for healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

Experiencing difficulty within a relationship can become a major source of stress that impacts all areas of our lives including our physical health. Thankfully there are a number of different ways that we can use social-self care practices when we feel overwhelmed or depleted by a difficult or challenging relationship, and in this video Dr. Vicki will guide you through strategies you can employ when you encounter these situations.

Social isolation and loneliness are associated with higher risks for depression, anxiety, high blood pressure, and more, and it's also not something we always have control over. Although it can feel harder to naturally make new connections as an adult, in this video Dr. Vicki will help you gain the confidence with ideas to socialize and form new and meaningful connections.

Feeling anxious in social situations can prevent us from building strong connections, reaching out to others, or saying yes to experiences that expand our community. However in this video, Dr. Vicki will guide you through steps you can take to build your social self-confidence.
