Should You Use ChatGPT for Therapy?
Episode 257
Wednesday, 26 November, 2025
Increasingly more and more people are chatting with AI to help them talk through and manage mental health struggles. But is this okay? Does it actually help? And on the flip side — does it pose any dangers to your mental health? In this episode, I'm diving deep into whether or not using ChatGPT, or any AI bot, for therapy is a wise choice, along with the potential consequences. In this episode, you will learn: The risks of using AI for therapy The differences between chatting with AI and going to therapy Future considerations to use AI for mental health *** Correction: In this episode, I mention "a teen who killed his mother," but the case involved an adult, not a teen.
