Parenting the Screenager with Dr Richard Hogan

At dlr Mill Theatre · Dundrum Town Centre, Dundrum, Dublin 16

A speaker addressing an audience from a theatre stage

Family psychotherapist and media commentator Dr Richard Hogan brings his live talk Parenting the Screenager to the dlr Mill Theatre in Dundrum on Sunday 25 October 2026. It suits parents of teenagers and pre-teens looking for practical guidance rather than a strictly academic lecture.

What to expect

The 90-minute session is built around the everyday pressures of raising teenagers who have grown up online, covering social media, gaming, anxiety, sleep and the wider pressures of digital life. Hogan draws on his clinical experience as a family psychotherapist to address bullying, body image and exam stress, and describes the format as “an energetic, lighthearted, and highly practical live show” rather than a traditional lecture. The aim is to leave parents with clear, usable strategies for communication and boundary-setting at home, rather than general theory. Hogan is a familiar voice on Irish radio and television on parenting and family issues, and the Mill Theatre date is part of a wider run of venue talks he gives around the country on the same theme. The show runs in the Mill Theatre’s main auditorium, giving it a proper stage setting rather than a classroom or hotel-conference-room format.
