AI is showing up in everything from marketing tools to therapy sessions. But with all this new tech, one big question remains: will it support therapists or shift their role?
In this episode, clinical psychologist and mental health tech advisor Dr. Lori Husband joins the show to unpack the evolving relationship between therapists and artificial intelligence. They explore the emotional side of this shift, from fears about job security to questions of clinical identity, and why leaning into tech might actually enhance your work instead of erasing it.
In This Episode, We Cover:
- Why AI sparks such strong reactions among clinicians
- The identity challenges and ethical questions that come with tech adoption
- How therapists and clients are already using AI in safe, supportive ways
- What a "clinical clone" is and why it might shape the future of care
- The invisible labor AI can help reduce, from notes to supervision to admin
- Practical ways to explore AI tools without compromising clinical integrity
