Is there a place for AI in your therapy practice?

In today’s episode, host Lisa O’Rorke and her guest Sarah D. Rees discuss the pros and cons of AI therapy, and where private practice owners can make use of AI tools to maximise their time.

From cutting down administrative burnout with AI scribes, to navigating the ethical and psychological implications of AI companions, Lisa and Sarah explore what the AI boom means for the future of mental health care and how practitioners can stand out in an increasingly automated world.

Sarah is a BABCP Accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist, running her own private practice in Cheshire. She’s also a published author and podcast host, who offers coaching, courses and community on the platform, Therapists Corner.

You can follow Sarah on Instagram and on her Substack, Therapists Corner.
