“I attended your seminar at the Camarillo library last week and thought the material was excellent in content, research, and presentation. You have so many practical and non-alienating suggestions–such as let your child know ahead of time you will be checking the phone for activity.
I am a grandmother of five and both our daughters have taken your seminar and are implementing your suggestions. Thank you so much for helping us all be better parents and grandparents.”

Blessings on you and your work,

Suzanne S.

Did you know?

I’m the founder of GetKidsInternetSafe, a mom, and a psychologist. In 25+ years treating kids and adults, I’ve seen our lives change dramatically, especially with COVID19. Zoom fatigue and digital exhaustion are hot topics. I offer education about the sources of digital injury and creative ways to apply psychological wellness tools to our screen-weary lives. I’d love to talk to you about what we can do to get our joy and passion back after recent divisive and frightening times.

Bio

Dr. Tracy Bennett is a screen safety expert who teaches families how to strengthen relationships AND achieve screen sanity. She is founder and CEO of GetKidsInternetSafe (GKIS) and author of Screen Time in the Mean Time: A Parenting Guide to Get Kids and Teens Internet Safe and the GKIS Home Starter Workbook

In her work as a clinical psychologist for over 25 years, she sees the impacts of digital injury and how to prevent and treat it. After being distracted by the loss of her parents, she needed answers for her own kids; shame-free, actionable strategies that work. They weren’t out there, so she committed to the GKIS mission.

Her research and teaching as adjunct faculty at CSUCI complemented her feet-on-the-ground practical skill set. She knows what psychology research is discovering about families and screen time. She consults with experts in technology and education, was honored to serve on the expert panel for Facebook’s Messenger Kids, and has served as Global Ambassador of TeenSafe. Her blog article Five Easy Screen-Use Parenting Strategies from GetKidsInternetSafe is published on Facebook’s Security Center. 

Dr. Bennett has appeared several times as a parenting expert on Access Hollywood Live and various national radio and television news programs. Her media appearances, keynotes, blog articles, and online parenting programs make a powerful impact on families. Her expert Internet safety and parenting articles have been published by Healthy Living Magazine, Moms Magazine, Mamapedia, and The Good Men Project, among others.
