How does an #AI establish a therapeutic alliance with users? This paper examines why it is able to foster a relationship of trust through conversation, and how that helps with the delivery of mental health interventions. #iapt #camhs #nhs #cbt #therapy

"As the stories in the book demonstrate, WOC are told, “No, the system is unbiased and fair and meritocratic.” That is delusional thinking and sets so many women of color up to doubt themselves, doubt their skills, doubt what’s really happening to them."

#NHSApp could be a success. Yet many people still can’t access it & some practices won’t enable access. System offered by my local practice doesn’t include online booking +their website is something out of the 90s. Still can’t view or access my record, not offered. .@NHSEngland
