AI as a Mental Health Tool? 

Demand for mental health care has grown 25% since the 1990s, and artificial intelligence is emerging as an unexpected response. More and more people are turning to virtual therapists that don’t judge, don’t watch the clock, and are more affordable. On social media, testimonials are multiplying. Can AI replace the human therapist? What risks does it carry? And what are specialists saying about this new frontier in mental health?

Guests: Luisa Ortiz Pérez, Executive Director Vita-Activa.org, Lead MDRNet.org, Newark, NJ; María Espinola, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Cincinnati, OH.
