Confidentiality is paramount
Mental health information is especially sensitive. Never enter client names, session content, or identifying details into public AI tools. Any tool used for clinical documentation must meet your legal and ethical obligations.
Safe uses for AI
- Drafting general practice policies
- Writing website content and FAQs
- Creating intake process explanations
- Planning workshops or group programs
- Drafting general appointment reminders
- Organizing business tasks
Website content
AI can help explain your approach, specialties, fees, and what to expect in a first session. Make sure descriptions are accurate and comply with professional advertising rules.
Practice policies
Cancellation policies, communication policies, and payment policies can be drafted with AI, then reviewed carefully and adjusted to your practice.
Psychoeducation materials
General handouts about topics like sleep hygiene or stress management can be drafted with AI and reviewed by the clinician for accuracy and appropriateness.
Business tasks
AI can help with marketing plans, budgeting outlines, and continuing education planning.
Know your limits
AI is not a clinician. Clinical judgment, documentation, and decisions must remain with qualified professionals.
Follow guidance
Professional associations and licensing boards are issuing guidance on AI use. Stay informed and adjust your practices accordingly, and consult a professional if you are unsure whether a use is appropriate.
