Utilising Artificial Intelligence in Clinical Practice

Dr. David Camfield is a Clinical Psychologist with 8 years of experience in private practice and public mental health. He is a member of the Australian Psychological Society (APS) and its Clinical College, as well as a board-approved supervisor. Before transitioning into clinical work, Dr. Camfield obtained a PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience and Personality Psychology, followed by post-doctoral research in psychopharmacology and biological psychiatry.

As an early adopter of AI in clinical practice, Dr. Camfield has recognised its potential to enhance both training for psychologists and treatment outcomes for clients. However, he strongly advocates for psychologists to be central to the development and application of AI in mental health, ensuring that the technology serves the nuanced needs of the profession, rather than being shaped by “big tech.” This vision led to the founding of Australasian Society for Artificial Intelligence in Mental Health Ltd., with the goal of ensuring mental health professionals have a critical voice in the future of AI in mental health

This presentation will provide an introduction to the varied uses of AI in clinical practice, and is suitable for psychologists and other mental health professionals. The use of AI scribe technology has been adopted by a growing number of clinicians over the past 12-months, and is often framed as a way to increase productivity or reduce administrative burden. However, Dr Camfield will present a more compelling perspective on the use of this new technology; primarily that when AI technology is utilized to it's full potential it can effectively enhance the delivery of clinical interventions, improve the quality of clinical supervision and reflective practice as well as the depth of engagement when in the room with our clients.

Our Story

After working for many years in public mental health systems, the principal psychologists at the Centre for Clinical Psychology decided to establish a service with a focus upon evidence-based therapy. They wanted to develop a service which provides comprehensive assessment and skillful treatment with a focus upon goal setting and measurable outcomes. They also wanted to create a practice where clients can collaborate openly, and feel respected, listened to and understood. At the heart of good therapy is a strong working relationship between client and therapist.

At the Centre for Clinical Psychology we aim to go beyond the management of surface concerns. We seek to provide therapy to address core issues. For example, it is quite common for relationship problems to overlap with concerns such as anxiety, depression and PTSD. Many of our clients who have had traumatic experiences, report improvements in their relationships when their trauma symptoms have been adequately treated. Similarly, when individuals present seeking help for postnatal depression, they tend to find that once the depression is adequately treated, other symptoms such as anxiety, irritability and the quality of their relationships also tend to improve.

At the Centre for Clinical Psychology we focus upon the delivery of high quality practice based on the translation of research. Our psychologists are highly trained and experienced clinicians who are involved in regular supervision and ongoing professional development.

We seek to first gain an in-depth understanding of your difficulties, and work with you to create change and new perspectives.
