This bill creates a new law prohibiting licensed therapists, psychologists, social workers, counselors, and similar mental health professionals from using artificial intelligence to conduct therapeutic communication with clients. The ban covers any AI-based system used to diagnose, treat, or address a client's mental, emotional, or behavioral health concerns, and violations would result in penalties.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
