New research from the APA reviewed 71 studies and found that heavy use of TikTok, Reels, and Shorts is linked to reduced attention, weaker emotional regulation, and higher stress in kids and teens.

If this feels familiar in your home, you’re not alone. At Aris Clinic, we help families navigate the impact of digital overload every day.

Our team supports kids who are struggling with:
💛 Focus and attention
💛 Mood swings and irritability
💛 Anxiety tied to constant online stimulation

Healthy limits can make a real difference—but you don’t have to figure it out on your own.
We’re here to help your child regain balance, confidence, and calm.

Happy Holidays from Aris Clinic!

As we reflect on the past year, we are grateful for the opportunity to support kids, teens, and families in our community as they build resilience, strengthen well-being, and grow in their mental health journey. During this holiday season, we encourage you to prioritize self-care, nurture meaningful connections, and make space for moments of calm and joy.

Wishing you and your loved ones a happy, healthy, and hopeful holiday season!

This holiday season, Aris Clinic encourages you to take a moment for yourself and step outside. Spending time in nature — whether it’s at a park, in the woods, or even in your own backyard — can have a calming effect on your mind and body.

Fresh air combined with movement is one of the simplest ways to boost your mental health and well-being. So, breathe deeply, soak in the scenery, and let the outdoors help you relax, reset, and recharge.

This Thanksgiving, we’re especially grateful for the trust our patients and families place in Aris Clinic. It’s a privilege to be part of your journey toward healing and stability. Thank you for letting us support you every step of the way. 🦃🍂 Happy Thanksgiving from your care team at Aris Clinic!

This World Kindness Day 🌎💛, let’s remember that kindness begins with ourselves. Practicing self-compassion helps us recharge and better support those around us. Here are a few ways to be kind to yourself today:

- Take a few deep breaths and enjoy a quiet moment.
- Speak to yourself with encouragement and understanding.
- Set aside time for something you love, just for you.

At Aris Clinic, we believe self-kindness is a vital part of mental well-being. Let’s spread kindness within and beyond! 💚

Our Story

Aris Clinic provides outpatient psychiatry and intensive therapeutic services for children and adolescents ages 5 to 18. We serve the five-county metro area from our private clinic in Woodbury, MN.

At Aris Clinic, we understand that kids don’t function well if they don’t feel well. We specialize in providing an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) within a coordinated, structured environment. We provide diagnostic clarification, treatment, and, when ready, a comprehensive discharge care plan. Our goal is helping kids transition back to healthy, stable and productive lives at home and school.

Aris Clinic services include medication management, group therapy, family and individual therapy, educational and psychological testing, case management, and school assistance. Dr. Shalene Kennedy, clinic founder, oversees all programming and our team of multi-disciplinary professionals.

Parents, teachers, doctors, therapists, counselors or family may refer patients to our IOP.
