Can AI Replace Therapy?

In this episode, Melissa and Susan explore a timely question: can AI actually replace therapy? They talk through the pros, the limits, and the real risks of using tools like ChatGPT for emotional support, self-reflection, and mental health questions. From boundaries and human connection to the danger of relying on AI in moments of crisis, this conversation looks at where AI can be helpful as a tool and where it falls short of real therapy. Remember that listening to this podcast is not therapy. It might be therapeutic, but it isn’t a replacement for good mental health treatment.
