Employees at top companies are mastering AI skills with the Workplace AI Institute
Your clinical thinking is irreplaceable. The hours of writing around it are not.
Most therapists spend evenings and weekends on progress notes, treatment plans, intake summaries, and insurance paperwork. Administrative work now rivals clinical work itself, and it's the number one driver of burnout in mental health. When documentation eats your time, clients get less of your attention and you get less of your life back.
AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini can draft session notes from bullet points, build treatment templates, write psychoeducation handouts, prepare referral letters, and create client resources in minutes. You keep complete control of your clinical thinking while AI handles the writing and formatting. This course shows you exactly how, with clear guidance on confidentiality, ethics, and HIPAA.

What Students Say
D. Luzzi
Clinical Counselor
★★★★★
"I found the training extremely informative and it gave me a much deeper understanding of how AI works and how it can support our claims processes."
S. Bernier
Mental Health Professional
★★★★★
"This class was great! It was very thorough, walked me through everything as a beginner and progressed as I learned more in each section. It gave real life examples of how to use AI on a daily basis. I would recommend!"
"Therapists lose nearly a third of their work week to paperwork they were never trained to do."
A recent survey by the American Psychological Association found that clinicians spend an average of 10 to 15 hours per week on documentation, billing, and administrative tasks, time that directly contributes to burnout and reduced caseload capacity.
