Description

Are therapists about to become part of a groundbreaking AI referral system? The concept of an OpenAI therapist network is gaining attention, and it's raising some big questions for the future of mental health care. In this episode of Run Your Private Practice with AI, I dive into OpenAI's potential plan to integrate a network of licensed therapists directly into ChatGPT’s ecosystem.

This conversation started when my friend Janine sent me an article highlighting OpenAI’s next move: a plan to combine AI support with vetted human therapists. If implemented, ChatGPT would act as the first point of contact for people struggling, flagging those in need and referring them to licensed professionals. It's a concept that could reshape the therapeutic landscape, and I'm unpacking what it could mean for all of us.
