Run Your Private Practice with AI (Artificial Intelligence)

16. AI in Therapy: Navigating Ethics and Confidentiality

Kym Tolson Season 1 Episode 16

In this episode, we delve into the crucial topic of ethics and confidentiality when integrating AI into therapy practices. Many therapists are hesitant to adopt AI due to concerns about privacy and data security. I share insights from real-world applications, like how medical offices use AI to record and transcribe sessions while maintaining HIPAA compliance. We explore the importance of using HIPAA-compliant AI tools and obtaining informed consent from clients to ensure their privacy and trust.

We also discuss the potential biases in AI outputs and the importance of customizing AI tools to align with our therapeutic approaches. Additionally, I address the issue of AI hallucinations, where AI might fill in blanks with inaccurate information if not given complete data, and the need for therapists to review AI-generated notes thoroughly. This episode is packed with practical advice and real-life examples to help you navigate the ethical landscape of using AI in your therapy practice.
