Is an Al-Mental Health & Safety possible?

The Digital Therapy Project seeks to understand experiences of teletherapy, online therapy platforms, and digital mental health tools from the perspectives of therapists and consumers of these technologies. Our focus is to develop model of Al-Mental Health & Safety (AI-MHS) within the digital therapy sector in collaboration with practitioners, trade unions, professional groups and consumers to form a basis for a regulatory tool for digital therapy.

We are interested in any digital tools that you consider to be therapeutic including mindfulness and wellbeing apps, mental health chatbots, text based support, teletherapy with/as a therapist in private practice or via an online Therapy platform. Anything you consider to be therapeutic we are interested in.

We are a group of researchers, practitioners, and academics from UK and US research institutions and professional networks of therapists seeking to answer how people are using digital tools for their mental health.

Learn more about who we are here.

In 2026/7 we will be developing workplace resources for therapists in the UK and US on how to navigate digitalization and platformization of therapy. If you want to be a part of the development of these ideas and networks please get in touch here.
