Working in the therapeutic space is tricky at the best of times, but none so more than now with the rise of ChatGPT and other AIs. More and more I hear and see people using these platforms as their therapists, chatting with them at any time of the day or night, divulging their deepest worries. There is very real concern within the industry that counsellors and psychotherapists will be replaced all together. But I think it’s more complicated than that. Although I can totally see the allure and potential benefits of generative AI chatbots in a therapeutic space, there is more to the story.
