If You Use AI for Therapy Watch This

A growing number of adults and teens are using AI chatbots for therapy, emotional support, advice, and difficult conversations. Some people say it helps them feel less alone. Others are relying on it daily for mental health guidance.

But there’s a major problem most people are missing:

AI can sound caring, wise, and authoritative without actually understanding you, your situation, or the consequences of its advice.

In this video, I break down:

• Why people are turning to AI for therapy

• The benefits people are experiencing

• The serious risks parents need to understand

• The privacy tradeoffs nobody talks about

• The dangerous “human-like” illusion of AI

• Why skepticism matters more than fear

• The exact custom instructions I recommend using with AI systems

I also discuss the tragic case referenced in current litigation involving a teen and an AI chatbot, and what it reveals about the limitations of these systems.

My goal is not panic or blind trust. It’s helping families understand what these tools are, where they help, where they fail, and how to use them responsibly.
