If you’ve been using an AI mental health app or chatbot and wondering, “Is this enough: or should I talk to a real therapist?” you’re not alone.
AI tools can be helpful for:
• quick grounding prompts when anxiety spikes
• journaling, mood tracking, and reminders
• practicing coping skills between sessions
But a licensed therapist offers what AI can’t:
• a real relationship + emotional attunement
• trauma-informed care and safety planning
• personalized treatment when things feel stuck, complex, or overwhelming
A wise way to use both: let AI support your day-to-day coping… and bring the patterns, triggers, and “hard stuff” into therapy where you can work through it: together.
