AI-Assisted Therapy

How AI-Assisted Therapy Can Work for You

 

Our secure, confidential AI tools work in the background to support your therapist and empower your growth.

 

Depending on your therapist, that can include one or more of these:

 

1. Note-Taking That Keeps Your Therapist Present​

It's hard to be fully present with someone while you're typing notes.

​

With your permission, your therapist can use Google Meet's built-in note-taking, powered by Google Gemini, to capture the key points of your session. That gives your therapist a record to build on, and it can be the starting point for the insights and exercises below. It runs inside our HIPAA-covered Google Workspace account, and you can ask your therapist to turn it off at any time.

​

2. Uncovering Deeper Insights & Patterns​

Sometimes the biggest breakthroughs come from seeing the connections you didn't know were there.

 

Our AI helps your therapist identify recurring themes, communication patterns, and hidden dynamics that emerge over time. Your therapist uses this to help you both move past the surface-level issue and address the core patterns underneath.

​

3. Tools and Exercises Tailored Just for You

No more generic worksheets. Based on the specific themes of your session, our system helps your therapist create personalized homework, reflection prompts, and skill-building exercises.

 

These are tools designed for your unique dynamic, helping you apply what you learn in therapy to your daily life.

​

4. Empowering Your Growth Between Sessions

For those who enjoy exploring on their own, we provide you with expertly crafted prompts to use with your own personal AI tools (like ChatGPT).

 

This is a completely optional way for you to continue reflecting and discovering insights on your own terms, in a way that feels comfortable to you.

Your Therapist is Always the Pilot
 

Let's be clear: You are not in therapy with a robot.

 

You are in therapy with a skilled, compassionate human who is an expert in neurodiverse relationships.

 

The AI is simply a powerful co-pilot, handling data and spotting patterns so your therapist can focus on what matters most: you, your partner, and your connection.

​

What AI Cannot Do:

​

• Read Nonverbal Cues & Rapport: A computer cannot see a softening posture, a tear, or a sudden change in eye contact. It misses the subtle patterns of connection and the difficulties in building rapport that tell the real story behind the words.

​

• Understand Developmental & Cultural Context: While AI processes words, it lacks the deep understanding of the developmental history and cultural background that shape who you are. It often misses the situational nuance—the "why"—behind your behaviors.

​

• Provide Normed, Standardized Diagnostics: Common AI tools are not a replacement for truly standardized, validated psychometric instruments. There is currently no valid test administration available through AI.

​

• Distinguish Effort from Genuine Barrier: AI can provide a roadmap, but it cannot do the driving. It lacks a qualitative sense of human effort and cannot distinguish between when you are engaging in suboptimal effort versus facing a genuine barrier to growth. The hard work of vulnerability remains yours alone.

​

• Offer Clinical Intuition: AI lacks clinical intuition honed by thousands of hours of experience. Relying on it alone creates safety risks: it may minimize symptoms (causing you to delay care) or catastrophize normal issues (causing unnecessary panic).

You should know that:

 

• Your therapist makes all clinical decisions.
   

• Empathy, trust, and human connection remain the heart of our practice.
   

• The AI provides data; your therapist provides the wisdom.
   

 

Your Privacy is Our #1 Priority

We know that therapy is a private space, and sharing your story requires trust. Protecting your confidentiality is a responsibility we take very seriously.

An Innovative Option: Your Choice & Comfort

This service is completely optional.

AI-assisted therapy is a specialized service currently offered by select therapists in our practice. Each therapist uses AI in a different way. They would be glad to explain their approach.
