AI Search: What It Means for Mental Health Professionals
TherapySites Provides: Digital Marketing Strategies
October 2026
For years, patients have turned to Google to find local mental health professionals. But today, artificial intelligence (AI)-powered tools such as ChatGPT are rapidly changing how patients search.
In this webinar we’ll take a closer look at AI search and compare it to traditional searches. We’ll then explore how patients are using AI—and how to optimize your online presence for AI search responses.
Learning objectives
By the end of this presentation, participants will be able to:
- describe how patients can use AI search to locate local mental health services;
- explain how AI determines what results to display after a search query; and
- identify several ways AI search is changing patients’ traditional search methods.
