The article discusses the role of AI in therapy, highlighting its potential to enhance accessibility with tools and apps. However, it cautions that the lack of genuine human connection detracts significantly from the therapeutic experience. The nuances of traditional therapy—such as emotional support, communication facilitation in relationships, and deep conversations—cannot easily be replicated by AI. While AI can assist with practical aspects, the core of therapy involves the irreplaceable human connection between therapist and client, essential for effective healing and growth.
