Scope of AI in becoming an integral part of mental health services in the future

In the rapidly evolving digital era, technology and artificial intelligence are reshaping the world at an unparallelled scale. While looking for support, AI could help understand clients’ needs better by dynamically adjusting the subsequent questions based on their responses, helping them find the right kind of mental health support. Before therapy sessions, an AI copilot could help clients better prepare for a session by helping them with seamless onboarding and assisting with personalised nudges to prepare for each session. During the sessions, AI could aid mental health professionals in more thorough note-taking, enabling them to fully engage with the client. Outside of sessions, one of AI's most significant impacts could be scheduling, billing, and other administrative tasks, freeing up more time for therapists to help more clients and concentrate on providing empathetic and effective mental health support.
