Helping Teens Overcome Cell Phone Addiction & Social Media Addiction in Torrance, Redondo Beach, Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach & Palos Verdes

At Higher Grounds Management, we understand the challenges that come with raising teens in a digital world. With smartphones being an integral part of daily life, many young people struggle with excessive screen time, impacting their academic performance, emotional well-being, and real-world social interactions.

In the South Bay, where an active lifestyle is encouraged, we work with families in Torrance, Redondo Beach, Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach & Palos Verdes to help teens break free from phone addiction and build healthier habits.

Recognizing the Signs of Phone Addiction

Excessive phone use can negatively affect teens in many ways. Some warning signs include:

• Difficulty putting their phone down, even during meals or family time

• Anxiety, irritability, or frustration when not using their phone

• Decreased focus and declining academic performance

• Late-night scrolling leads to sleep problems

• Avoiding real-life social interactions in favor of online connections

At Higher Grounds Management, we see firsthand how these patterns can disrupt a teen’s daily life and long-term development. Our goal is to provide customized intervention strategies to help teens regain control over their screen time while fostering real-world connections.
