Original article available HERE

As the article says: "Chatbots are having a significant impact on numerous fields - especially the psychology sector.  Developers caution these tech tools aren't a replacement for human interactions with experts, but it's already clear chatbots are an always-available resource - which isn't the case for human health practitioners."

Checkout WOEBOT

"Woebot is an automated conversational agent (chatbot) who helps you monitor mood and learn about yourself. Drawing from a therapeutic framework known as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Woebot asks people how they’re feeling and what is going on in their lives in the format of brief daily conversations. Woebot also talks to you about mental health and wellness and sends you videos and other useful tools depending on your mood and needs at that moment. You can think of Woebot as a choose-your-own-adventure self-help book that is capable of storing all of your entries, and gets more specific to your needs over time."
