In a world where screens are part of every moment—at school, at work, and even in bed—it’s easy to lose sight of when digital habits cross the line into addiction.
You’re not imagining it.
✅ Your child can’t function without a tablet—even during meals or car rides.
✅ Your teenager stays up till 3 AM gaming, then wakes up anxious and withdrawn.
✅ You catch yourself endlessly scrolling on Instagram, even when you’re exhausted.
✅ Family time has become a silent zone—with every face buried in a screen.
✅ Arguments at home often begin with “Just five more minutes!”
These are not isolated issues—they’re becoming the norm in homes across Dubai, across the world.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
At Positive Living UAE, we offer a specialized, brain-based program to treat video game addiction, smartphone dependency, and compulsive screen use—for children, teens, and adults alike.
This isn’t about removing screens completely. It’s about understanding why we use them, how they hijack the brain’s reward system, and what emotional voids they’re trying to fill.
Maybe your child throws tantrums when you take away the iPad.
Maybe your teen avoids real-world stress by disappearing into online games.
Maybe you feel numb, anxious, or overstimulated without constant scrolling.
We see this every day in our clinic—and we know how to help.
Our work goes deeper than simple detox rules or digital timers. We combine QEEG brain mapping, neurofeedback therapy, clinical hypnosis, and conscious parenting coaching to help you or your child understand, heal, and rebuild a more regulated relationship with technology.
Because screen addiction isn’t just about too much time on a device—it’s about what that screen is replacing.
Today’s world is wired for distraction. Children are exposed to tablets before they learn to speak. Teens spend more hours online than in real-life social interaction. Adults—parents included—are scrolling through reels late into the night, not because they want to, but because they can’t stop.
You may have noticed:
🔹 Your 10-year-old can’t sit through dinner without asking for a screen.
🔹 Your teen seems constantly irritable, anxious, or zoned out—always wearing headphones, avoiding eye contact.
🔹 You yourself reach for your phone the second there’s silence… even during moments that could be restful or connected.
🔹 Family time feels fragmented. Everyone’s in the same room—but no one is really there.
🔹 You argue with your kids about screen time more than you talk about their day.
And yet, when you take the devices away… there’s a meltdown. Or a shutdown.
That’s not just behavioral—it’s neurological.
Screens are hijacking our brains’ reward systems, disrupting sleep, attention, and emotional regulation.
And in children and teens, whose brains are still developing, the impact is even deeper.
This therapy is necessary because we cannot fight digital overstimulation with just willpower or parental rules. We need to understand what’s happening in the brain—and help it reset, retrain, and reconnect.
At Positive Living UAE, we don’t punish or shame.
We create space to understand the emotional needs behind the addiction—whether it’s escaping loneliness, avoiding anxiety, or simply overstimulation.
Then we support each client—child, teen, or adult—with tools to heal from the inside out.
Because it’s not just about turning off the screen.
It’s about turning on presence, confidence, joy, and connection again.
No—screen and video addiction affects adults too. We work with all age groups, tailoring each session to the client’s emotional and lifestyle needs.
Clients often experience reduced screen cravings, better focus, improved sleep, and more emotional balance within 6–8 sessions. Long-term transformation deepens with consistency and family support.
Absolutely. For children and teens, parental coaching is key. We guide parents to create boundaries, routines, and a healthier emotional environment at home.
Yes. Neurofeedback trains the brain to shift out of hyperstimulation, improving focus, regulation, and reducing impulsive digital habits—especially in children and teens.
