We Need to Talk About AI

AI is already in the room, whether we name it or not.

As healing professionals, we’re cautiously experimenting with AI, quietly using it behind the scenes… or avoiding it completely. But few of us are talking about what’s happening beneath the surface:

• 🌀 Ethical tension in spaces built on trust + consent
• 🧯 Burnout driving us to seek digital relief
• ⚖️ Cultural + systemic bias embedded in the tech

This panel won’t give you 5 tools or trendy prompts.

It’s here to speak truth to power, hold space for nuance, and explore how we relate to AI—not just as users, but as guides whose clients may already be using it to process trauma, rehearse conversations, or replace reflection—and who need us to name what’s helpful, what’s harmful, and what’s still unfolding.

👥 Who It's For

This is for therapists, coaches, and healing professionals who are:

• Curious but cautious about AI
• Already experimenting—but doing so quietly
• Wondering how to stay rooted in culture, care, and consent while using powerful new tools
• Ready to confront the bias, burnout, and power dynamics that shape our work with tech

🔍 What We’ll Explore

• What’s ethical—and what’s missing—from AI conversations
• How AI mirrors systemic harm (unless we retrain it)
• The quiet fear of obsolescence
• How to use AI to support healing, not replace it
