Alexandra Sabal, a psychologist at our clinic, shares valuable considerations on this topic.

Quality time means devoting a significant amount of time in which you give your undivided attention to shared activities with your children and partner. Without electronics and distractions, you can build deep emotional connections and address issues that probably wouldn’t be addressed in a routine day when everyone has their own responsibilities.
Why is it so important?
