5-star reviews from parents, gamers and health professionals
Honestly, this program has been life-changing for our family. We were desperately seeking help for years, but health professionals didn’t seem to acknowledge or understand the issues. I am so grateful for all of the information and help this program has provided our family.

Thanks to Dr. K, I now have a far better and more nuanced understanding of what role gaming plays in my child's life, which has allowed me to communicate about gaming with less judgment and more compassion.
Sarah, Parent
I began to realize how deeply video games affect children. I learned that there were things my son was secretly craving and wanting to fulfill in life. The resource showing the correlation between video game genres with specific personality traits and personal needs was so valuable.
