Ethical Use of AI In Therapy for Therapists

As providers, we are expected to juggle client care, administrative paperwork, advocacy all while upholding ethical standards of our professions. We're also supposed to quickly become experts on new tech like AI (the two infamous letters!) and use it in our practice. Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to show potential to augment and enhance provision of mental health services. However, AI also introduces legal and ethical risks into your practice. If you are feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about AI, then this course is for you.

In this course, you will learn about AI, how it applies to mental health, ways you could and shouldn't use it, and how the ethical standards of your professions impact this conversation. You will hear from Kevin Boyd, LCSW Founder of Future Full of Hope and guest speaker Kristi Boyd, MA - AI Specialist & Technology Ethicist. You will also get to ask your most pressing questions.

After this course, you will feel more confident talking about AI and deciding what AI tools are right for you and your clients. You will also walk away with 5 practical handouts that will help you leverage AI tools in your practice in a responsible manner that aligns with the values of your profession.

Handouts include:

• 9 ways therapists can use AI

• Therapist checklist: what to look for in an AI tool?

• Script to talk to your clients about using AI.

• So you work with underrepresented populations? Special considerations in using AI.
