About this title

Synopsis

This book examines the transformative potential of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) with cognitive behavioural therapy. Tailored for mental health professionals, it offers evidence-based strategies and ethical frameworks for the potential adoption of AI in therapeutic practice.

Designed for readers with little or no understanding of AI, this book explores key concepts such as machine learning, natural language processing, and deep learning, in accessible ways, while demonstrating their potential applications in cognitive behavioural therapy. It addresses pressing ethical considerations, including algorithmic bias, data security, and the responsible integration of AI in mental health care. By balancing innovation with ethical rigour, this resource empowers readers to understand innovative approaches while maintaining the integrity of their practice.

This is an essential guide for clinical psychologists, counsellors, social workers, psychiatrists, educators, and researchers who want to explore the application of AI in cognitive behavioural therapy and stay at the forefront of therapeutic research and practice.
