On Wednesday I have an interview with Leah Ye, who studied psychotherapy as an undergraduate and graduate student, has ten years of experience in clinical psychotherapy, and currently focuses on one-on-one and group counselling/psychotherapy.

Leah was very interested in our topic, and said it was one that psychotherapists would discuss in their usual banter

Here is a link to the interview transcript：https://www.notion.so/Leah-Ye-Interview-54116df57cec4a49bd2df00541502a69?pvs=4

I am personally interested in Leah’s outlook on the future use of Ai in psychotherapy. She mentioned that currently psychotherapists understand the experience of visitors mainly through empathy, while AI can be used to form information like videos or pictures based on the description of visitors or dream analysis, visualising the feelings of visitors, helping therapists to better empathise with visitors and improving the efficiency and accuracy of therapy. Such technology can also help visitors with similar language barriers to better express their feelings.

Meanwhile, after ensuring the confidentiality and ethics of Ai, it would be cool to even create a visual archive, so that when a therapist needs a particular visitor’s file they can go through their experiences, their dreams, as if they were looking at an image, a video, it would be a cool thing to do!

In fact there are a lot of museums that are starting to do things like this now (visual archives), and there are more outlooks for this technology combined with AI, Vr and psychotherapy.
